My Fellow Voivodfans – Please Help! I’ve got this tune in my head and I HAVE to go buy it on CD, but for the life of me I can’t think what it is. It’s classical music, and goes something like this: (fast violins in the background) da-da da da/da-da da da (repeat) (then, HUGE LOUD EVIL FAT brass) DAAAAAAAA-DAAAAAAA. DA…DA…DA…DAAAAAAAA. DA-DAAAAAAAAAA. Da-da-da-DAAAAAA. Da-da-da DA! DA! (then back to violins) For anyone who had ‘Earthworm Jim’ on the Sega Megadrive/Genesis, it was the background music when Jim is on the Planet Heck (where the evil cat lived). My mate and I think it was in the classic Bugs Bunnys cartoon based on Wagner’s Gotterdammerung (The Ring) where Elma Fud chases Bugs about in a viking helmet and there’s fire and mountains everywhere (“what have I done…I killed a waaabit”). So I bought an excerpt from the The Ring but it wasn’t on there. There was, however, the music to Excalibur which I’ve wanted for years, so that was an unexpected bonus. Please please please someone tell me what it is! You know it, everyone knows it.

I know a composition that goes like this: ta-ta ta/ta-ta ta ta (repeat) then TAAAAAAAA- TAAAAAAAA- TA... TA... TA... TAAAAAAA. TA- TAAAAAAAA. Ta-ta-ta TAAAAA. Ta-ta-ta TA! TA! But it is TA, not DA, so probably not the one you are looking for, sorry

I think that i might be in for a prize of sort? Assuming that I'm not very wrong in the head indeed.
It could well be:Mussorgsky: 'Night on Bare Mountain.'? That's a hifi tester that one and no mistake.
It's very violent like Stravinski's 'The rite of Spring', if you know that one? Am I right? Am I?

I remember buying an album of their's alongside 'Deception Ignored' by Deathrow.
I can barely remember either of them now,
other than a mad progout called 'Triopticon', I think?PS: I've only just realised that it's 'bald' and not 'bare' mountain...
Yor're wrong it's actually "bare" mountain, Mekong delta maybe are not active, still they havent finished yet. I have 3 cd's from these guys and its great, songs like toccata,the princilpele of doubt still kick ass...
 i wish today musicins have at least 50 percent of tallent as these germans...
european metal today rules.(from germany,finland,sweden...),american metal that use to reign supreme isnt as good as it was in the early/mid 90 and 80's

LOL! Hey, Emlyn and the rest of you "Baldies", I found the version of this music I had previously spoken of. It has a bit of a dated '70's Prog Sound' to it, but I have always enjoyed this band's unique rock interpretation - Here is a dee-luxe VBR MP3 edit of the first few minutes of Fireballet's: Night on Bald Mountain  (click image for info) I will leave this one up for quite awhile...
Hope y'all enjoy it.
