"SERIOUS DUDES THAT ROCK WITH GOOD NINTENTIONS."



"Good Nintentions" Indeed! The homepage of The Advantage's website says it all. When I saw The Advantage open for Solex last year, I was totally floored when I realized all the completely instrumental (not to mention no synths!) songs they were performing, were covers of 8-bit nintendo game music. Afterwards I thought it was a great idea, and didn't think much about it afterwards until recently when I discovered a couple of other video game homages invading the music scene. First I ran across The 32-Bit Handhelds on myspace, whose website, is hands down, just brilliant... Oh yea, and I should mention they rock too! And then, out of nowhere came the mega festival Video Games Live. Which is just way too much to explain... So you just have to go there and see the insanity for yourself.
