Shao Khan - Emperor of the Merge

By ARCAIDE Arrangements · Symphonic Metal · From the album Mortal Kombat Melodies

This track pairs heavy, stomping metal riffs with dramatic orchestral brass and strings to tell the story of Mortal Kombat villain Shao Kahn conquering Earthrealm. A commanding, gravelly vocal barks out battle orders over relentless double-kick drumming, building up to massive, slow-marching choruses and a crushing final breakdown.
