Pumpkin Rapper: Maybe ya did / But it's time to get sad / 'Cause of Lord Zedd's power / We're back and we're bad! Tommy: I thought we turned you into squash, Pumpkin Rapper! In particular, "Combat" has a great chorus, interspersing an a stuttered shouting of the word "combat" with classic metal guitar harmonizations and lines from the show. While all are somewhat similar in the sense of their structure, each is extremely catchy, including extremely hummable vocal harmonies that could be stuck in your head for some time. Another highlight on the album are the choruses. "Go Green Ranger Go" continues the neo-classical inspired shred, while tracks like "Zords" and "I Will Win" show some more blues influence guitar pyrotechnics. Not sticking to any distinct patterns, the song "5-4-1" shows some definite extreme metal influence, displaying quick double bass triplets, adding to the already frantic nature of the song.įollowing the trend set by main theme song "Go Go Power Rangers", almost each song on Power Rangers: A Rock Adventure features some great guitar soloing. The song also features a a great piano interlude, giving the track a great bit of diversity.
Songs like "We Need A Hero", which open with the humorous banter of comedic duo Bulk and Skull, progress to feature a supremely melodic and memorable chorus, showcasing Wasserman's highly recognizable vocal skills, along with raging power chord progressions and a mechanical drum beat. Composed by producer Ron Wasserman, the music heard on Power Rangers: A Rock Adventure, is very deeply routed in hard rock and 80's heavy metal.
