The Megas, based in Los Angeles, California and formed in 2004, cover the soundtracks to the Mega Man video game series and add original lyrics, expanding on the games' somewhat sparse storylines. The group's current lineup consists of "Reverend" Josh Breeding (Vocals, Guitar), Eric "E" Von Doymi (Vocals, Guitar), Greg "Gregatron" Schneider (Bass, backing Vocals), Michael "Mikey Hell" Levinson (Drums), and new addition, Brian "Double D" DiDomenico (Keyboards). Works include Get Equipped, based on Mega Man 2, Get Acoustic, an acoustic remastering of Get Equipped, Megatainment, a 4-track collaborative EP with fellow Video Game cover band Entertainment System based on Mega Man 1, Sparked a War, a single featuring the titular track, an acoustic and instrumental version of it, and two B-Sides. They have also collaborated with other artists in the Video Game Music community, such as Mega Ran AKA Random, and Brentalfloss. Their latest release is History Repeating: Blue, the first half of a two-part album based on Mega Man 3, to be followed by History Repeating: Red in the near future. According to the members, the reason for this is due to issues that arose when planning a 20 track album and concerns that the release date would continue to be pushed back even further.
