Calliope Mori - Black Sheep (Metal Remix)

"We're living in the upside down now..."
Of the songs on Jigoku 6, Black Sheep is the one I've seen the most people talk about online. It's not really a surprise, because there's a lot to unpack with it. I remember hearing the first few seconds of this in the EP's initial teaser, which was more enough to solidify my hype for its release, and the full thing does not disappoint! Here, Calli reflects on her place within the greater music landscape, all over a kickass rock beat courtesy of Koichi Tsutaya. Once again, she also animated the music video for it as well, and she goes buck-wild with all kinds of imagery that fit with the song's message.
Much like with other songs on the EP, this track was fairly easy to rework into metal. I wanted my cover to be in the style of Killswitch Engage, which is a band I've drawn from subconsciously in many of my other works, but never tried emulating directly until now. Their blend of melody and heaviness was a good fit for what Black Sheep is going for, although I don't think it leaves much room for the more "emo" elements they're known for. Still, it all adds up to some pretty heavy stuff!

Solo makes a nice addition.

Would love to see you take on Left for Dead Lullaby. I think it would be super fitting for some kind of Prog sort of thing. Absolutely super love the stuff you do!!

[@eternitybright]

soul-reapingly awesome remix! I absolutely cannot wait to see if you're doing all of Jigoku 6 like the other albums.
Also, I've been wondering what happened to your The Grim Reaper Is A Live-Streamer remix? I got a new phone and when I was searching to redownload your remixes, I couldn't find it

[@TheBendableK]

I unlisted it… didn’t really feel like it was up to standard with my other works.

[@eternitybright]

@@TheBendableK Aww... personally, I really loved it. Could you share the link, please? I'd love to add it to my playlists so I can easily find it again
