This week, we are buzzing with hopefully cool stuff and not just nostalgia as we discuss video game cover bands and their original soundtracks! We love bands that cover music from 80s and 90s video games, and Aaron has some recommendations for music from games that aren't old enough to have kids in college! Plus the usual idiocy, naturally.
