Dave calls Jay to remember one of the greatest arcade soundtracks of the 80s: Golden Axe. This ultra classic draws inspiration, and even direct sound samples, from its contemporaries like Conan the Barbarian and Rambo, creating an era-specific sound. Dave breaks down the track Death Adder, and how it builds upon the game's battle music to create a sense of tragic impending doom and finality as you face off against the ultimate villain of the game.
