Geek Out: Rock Out to this Metal Cover of Elfman’s ‘BATMAN’ Theme

GEEK OUT is a new type of post here at Destroy the Brain. Whether it be collectibles or just random stuff that reminds us of or pays tribute to a film, GEEK OUT will feature these types of things that we can…well, geek out on.

I’ve heard songs that will melt your face.  I’ve witnessed things that give me a geek boner.  Never though have I ever had my face melted while simultaneously maintaining a throbbing geek boner.  Be warned: the below video will do this.  Outside of being an all-around Batman fan, I have a personal fondness for Danny Elfman’s aggressive and soaring theme from Tim Burton’s 1989 Batman.  If you didn’t think that his score could get any better, think again.  Artificial Fear has put together a cover of Danny Elfman’s Batman theme by way of guitar-shredding.  This packs as much of a punch as the “POW!” “BANG!” “KAPOW!” graphics from the comics.  Listen for yourself below.
