On MGR, we gave Jimmy the two-part task of bringing the final battle to life. From recording a duet for the Spider-Man 2 soundtrack with Brian Eno of Queen, to being one of the first choices to replace Scott Weiland in Velvet Revolver, Jimmy’s voice is so unique and his vocal range so incredible that you feel like you are being compelled to listen to his tracks just to hear what he sings next. His talent is unquestionable and this has made him a prolific singer. Jimmy Gnecco is best known as the lead singer of Ours, a moody, incredible band that is touring the country right now. I guess I’ll just have to fix that next time. That being said, Metal Gear Rising wouldn’t be what it is without him! Unfortunately, I wasn’t in the studio when Kit recorded his vocals, and he wasn’t able to make the live show, so I haven’t had the chance to meet him and congratulate him on the absolute ass-kicking job he did on Stains of Time. What is interesting about Kit is that his personal music lends more towards the pop/dance realm. Just take a listen to Stains of Time or A Soul Can’t Be Cut. He is also more likely to melt your face off with awesome vocals. Kit Walters is a far prettier man than I can ever hope to be. Make sure to check out his work before Nashville steals him away from games! You can listen to his work at or follow him on twitter at Follow Walters While Jason still has a metal streak in him, he is becoming increasingly successful at merging rock and roll music with his country roots. It became a weird combination of darkness and beauty that is the perfect fit for our dear friend Sundowner. With Kenji Saito watching on via Skype we kept pushing further until we arrived at the final product.

We walked into the studio without a clue how to salvage the song, but Jason just stood in front of the mic and came up with an incredible take of Type-O Negative-style vocals that took the track in an entirely new direction.
Red Sun was actually going to be performed by a European speed metal singer, but an untimely stage accident prevented this from happening. Rules of Nature would have never been Rules of Nature without his shouting and ability to change gears on the fly however, he gets even more credit for Red Sun. Jason’s creativity and energy really brought an awesome spin to the MGR soundtrack. He’s been a voice actor of tons of games, participated in gamer-focused Youtube video projects with the likes of Felicia Day (Gamer Girl, Country Boy), and is just generally tons of fun to hang out with. Jason is the incredibly tall and imposing singer behind the band God Head, but his geek credentials go far past that. Now on to the artists that we didn’t get to touch upon during the previous blog. It has been great fun to read all of your comments regarding your favorite tracks, and it is clear to everyone here how much you love the soundtrack! Hopefully we get to make a second one… and even better! Hi all, JP here again with more behind-the-scenes of the Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance soundtrack.įirst of all, a thank you for the overwhelming response to the previous blog.
