“We are ROCK-MEN” Album Promo and Release Date
Back at the beginning of the month, we reported that a collective of Capcom sound members dubbed “We are ROCK-MEN” intended to develop a Rockman themed arrange album. Today the above video was put up on Rockman Unity of Rockman 5′s Darkman stage, presumably one of the planned tracks for the album. Pretty rockin’, eh? what’s more, the soundtrack’s release date is revealed to be September 21st for ¥2,100 (roughly $27.02 US). The album will contain at least 15 tracks spanning the Rockman and Rockman X series.
Additionally, below is a work in progress version of the album’s cover, which is also looking pretty cool. Viva Mega Man music!

I forgot this album existed (or rather was going to exist). I am super stoked for it. The preview sounds great. I can’t wait to hear more.
Favorite track from 5. And awesome art.
This looks promising.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to change my pants… :3
I gotta say: THAT COVER ART IS BEAST!!! Sweet artwork yo!
So the guy on the left is Rockman and the one on the right is Blues?
And I always love Darkman’s castle theme in any iteration (original, complete works, “imitation castle” and now this).
Great remix, cool art! Mega Man 5 music doesn’t get enough remix love. And that’s one of my favorite songs from that game too…
… where’s Rock’s other pupil?
Man, that sounded freaking’ amazing. Of course, the Dark Man theme also happens to be one of my most favorite songs in all of Mega Man, as well. XD
Kick ass cover and music sample, can’t wait!.
My favorite MM5 song, too. I really liked that preview; hope they’re all that great!
Truly awesome cover and interesting demo.
Also, having the Wily Capsule sound at the end was a cute touch!
Oh… his eye is closed. I see now.
It’d be awfully ironic if they included a DASH theme in it. DO IT ROCK-MEN! Also, these guys need to get a show with The Protomen sometime.
nnnnngh…I want this album right now!
hell yeah MUST BUY this one =D
Blaze Heatnix and Solar Man’s themes MUST BE arranged!
Well, this just proves my point further that Rockman is becoming a musical franchise more so than a gaming one.
I hope at least half of the album is X stuff.
@Steven Chase: Yeah, his closed (winking?) eye looks a little awkward…but the song sounds pretty friggin awesome.
This is needed… This is NECESSARY FOR LIFE!!! XD Love the art cover so far, and that music sample kicked A** !
Keep the Rockman music coming!
So Rock!!! This is really cool remix music!
I am rocking! You dig peoples?
HHHNNNNNNNNGGG!!!! Was that good for you?
Oh god, I cannot express how awesome that was to listen to! Easily my favorite Mega Man title, and the best damn track out of the whole game, if not the series.
I swear, people need to wake up and recognize 5 for the badass title that it was. Hoo-ah!
AWESOME!!! Cant wait
Noooo! There is no way for me to get it.
Blast Capcom.. giving all the good stuff to japan :/
Damn. awesome album, but they needed MM3 Title!
