A collection of songs from various Studio Ghibli films performed by a handful of melodeath/metalcore bands (Disarmonia Mundi and Blood Stain Child being the more notable names of the bunch). The concept is certainly interesting, and the music ain't too shabby either. Some covers work out better than others (my personal favorite being Disarmonia Mundi's rendition of "Kimi wo Nosete" from Castle in the Sky) and it works better in smaller doses, but for the concept alone, it's definitely worth at least a curious peek.
Also, if you ever wanted to hear a melodeath cover of "Take Me Home, Country Roads", this album has it. It's just fun.
