Suck it Parodius, this is how you make a parody album! The whole quality is crisp, the instruments are nice and distinct and varied with heartbeats even thrown in track 17, the beats are great and nicely dirty in track 7, the Bomberman references are tied in but not overdone or annoying, the album is just all-around professionally done. The weaker parts are the boss music and the native synth at the end, but even those aren't bad. All around, it's a skillfully composed album where you can appreciate the artistic merit in even the parts you're not fond of.
