Medli’s Melodies: ‘Tal Tal Heights’ metal cover

There’s something refreshing about listening to music that is able to leave you completely exhausted. Heavy metal is a genre perfectly suited for this. It gets you pumped and leaves you tired yet fulfilled. It’s the super-spicy hot wings of music.

So, when you take that energy and slap it over the beloved and mesmerizing notes of a Legend of Zelda song, you get a strong mix of emotions, with all of those emotions delivering shot after shot of feel-awesome vibes.

This remix comes to us by YouTuber RichaadEB, who we have featured in a previous Medli’s Melodies. He brings a high level of energy to every song he features, which makes their payoffs outstanding.

RichaadEB wastes no time and kicks the song into high gear, the iconic opening melody meeting the listener with a fast and unrelenting tempo. The guitar carries the song along with no lulls that would rob the track of any energy. As he moves from one part of the song to the next, the tension continues to rise. Once it reaches the peak, the notes explode with one, final blast as a sign of triumph.

It’s an intense rock song to match the intense rock climbing Link must do to reach the mountain range’s summit. Listening to this, I am stuck with the mental image of Link with headphones in as he headbangs along to the song while making his ascent, and I couldn’t be happier about it.
