Little is known about The Protomen, other than that the band is based in Nashville, Tennessee.[2] https://powerfulblack.weebly.com/blog/izotope-4-crack-mac. Their stage names are largely references to pop culture films, song titles, and fictional characters. The group members refer to themselves as storytellers, creating a 'rock and roll fable';[3] they are not characters in their stories.
The band is composed mostly of MTSU recording program graduates, and first came to be so that they could meet class deadlines and the need to record for their grades.[1] Their first live performance was in April 2004.[4] Most of the band had graduated and moved to Nashville by 2005.[5]
In a 2009 interview, lead vocalist Panther stated, 'We basically gathered up all of our good friends from the local rock bands of Murfreesboro, tied ourselves together, and tried to walk. And somehow it worked. At the time, we noticed a void in rock and roll. A hole that could only really be filled with grown men and women painting up like robots and playing some fierce and furious rock music based on a 1980s video game. We were fairly certain no one else was going to fill that hole. But, by God, it's filled now. You can thank us later.'[6]

The Protomen[edit]
In the band's first album, Dr. Wily is represented as an Orwellian ruler over a dystopic city, full of humans who are too scared to stand up to his control. Dr. Light creates a 'perfect man, an unbeatable machine', Proto Man, to fight to free the City, but Proto Man is destroyed by the overwhelming power of Wily's armies. Defeated and despairing, Dr. Light then creates a second son, Mega Man, whom he attempts to dissuade from battle. Mega Man runs away from home and confronts his brother in an apocalyptic concluding battle. The album has been described by the band as 'the sound of the end of the world' and straddles the line between chiptune and hard rock, with heavier focus on distorted 8-bit synthesizers and electronic instrumentation.
Band member, Commander, has stated that the album 'was made specifically to go against everything our recording teachers and fellow students were trying to feed us about making everything sound pristine and 'perfect.'.[5] The album was recorded over two years in various Murfreesboro studios, using analog rather than digital production techniques.[7] 'Due Vendetta', the group's first recorded track, was completed in April 2003. The album was produced by then-Protomen member Heath Who Hath No Name.
Act II: The Father of Death[edit]
For the band's second album the group, working with Meat Loaf producer Alan Shacklock, devised a prequel storyline to their first album. The second act details the rise of Albert Wily to power, the rivalry between himself and Thomas Light, and the tragic events which brought the City under Wily's control. The band stated that Act II was designed to sound cleaner, reflecting a time 'before the bomb dropped'. Accordingly, the second album reflects a much broader range of musical styles and more lyrical instrumentation, embracing references from Ennio Morricone to Bruce Springsteen to Shacklock's own Babe Ruth. The album was mastered by Richard Dodd, a Grammy-winning recording engineer.
The Protomen Present: A Night of Queen[edit]
The Protomen are known for performing, along with their original rock opera, a variety of 1970s and 1980s cover songs in their live performances, typically related to the band's preferred motifs of heroism, struggle, and self-determination. On December 10, 2010, the Protomen performed along with Nashville band Evil Bebos for the latter band's farewell concert. Evil Bebos played a set entirely composed of Black Sabbath cover songs, while the Protomen in kind performed a set of Queen covers.[8] The live performance was recorded and mastered, and on April 19, 2012, the Protomen announced through their website and mailing list that the resulting live album, titled The Protomen Present: A Night Of Queen, would be released and was available for pre-order.[9] Though set for a June 1, 2012 release, the album shipped early to those who pre-ordered it.[10]
The Cover Up: Original Soundtrack From the Motion Picture[edit]
In November 2010 while performing at InDisFest in Atlanta, GA, the band announced their intention to formally record an album of cover songs. Production on the album began in February 2011 with producer, Alan Shacklock; the band's second collaboration with the producer following Act II.[11][12] By June 2014, the band announced that a downloadable EP would be made available to attendees of their Warped Tour 2014 performances to promote the upcoming full-length album, titled The Cover Up. The EP was released via a download code printed on The Cover Up movie ticket stub, referencing a faux non-existent film with the same title, packaged inside of a laminate sleeve attached to a lanyard commemorating their appearance at Warped Tour.[13] The full-length album was released on January 23, 2015 to attendees of MAGFest 13, where The Protomen were performing. The following morning, on January 24, the album was made available for pre-order to the general public through the band's website.[14]
Musical style and influences[edit]
The group has cited the influence of 'artists like Syd Mead, films like Eddie and the Cruisers and Streets of Fire, books like 1984 and Atlas Shrugged. those are the pretty obvious ones you can pull out of Acts I and II. But what you might not realize is that we own every Ernest movie ever made. And we watch them all the time.'.[6] Apart from previously mentioned, the band also draws inspiration from a huge array of other diverse sources, including Sergio Leone's films, the song 'The Mexican' and musical groups Radiohead, Styx, Toto, Queen and Alabama.
Concepts and themes[edit]
The Protomen playing at Holy Mountain in Austin, Texas
The Protomen's work is inspired by the first six NESMega Man games.[1] This franchise has an existing storyline featured in the games, manga, and anime; however, The Protomen have concocted a dark and dystopian version of the game's underlying world. The group is generally uninterested in concerns of making their story adhere to the original. Instead, they view the games as a jumping-off point for the story they want to tell, and have borrowed surface attributes of some characters while heavily altering their histories and functions.

Two of the parts are completed with the release of their first two albums, while the third is in outline form.The overall story as created by the band deals with loss, and they 'don't really expect it to end well for humanity.'

[SPOILER WARNING] Theory about the story tracks on The Cover Up [SPOILER WARNING]
So I have a theory.
Cannot download from microsoft store windows 10. Some people are saying this takes place during Act III, and the characters are Light and Roll.
I don't think so.
I think that the story part of the album is Light's PoV of the events transpiring during The Hounds.
First we hear a woman receiving a phone call. We don't know who it's from, or what it's about. This is important.
Then we cut to a man listening to the radio. I think this is Dr. Light, on the run from the police. You can hear on the radio 'police investigators have named their prime suspect in the murder of Em-' As he does commonly during Act II, he's 'speaking to Emily's ghost', about how their relationship will persevere through death, and that, as he expects to be executed, he will 'see her soon.' Police sirens can be heard in the background - as we know, Light is being pursued by the police.
Now we cut to Light with an unknown woman. a 'fearless reporter', something I doubt would exist in Wily's City, and someone who would likely be bitter towards Wily around early Act II due to him supplanting the news cycle. The two of them are being pursued, for obvious reasons. She's likely one of the few people who thinks Light is innocent, because she sees through the media sham that's going on; she was part of that system until Wily replaced it. This also explains why they discuss Emily - around Act I/III, this would be a thing long forgotten by the City, but during Act II, it's fresh in the citizens' minds.
Then we cut to the mysterious woman on the phone with a third person, asking if she 'got it' - the reporter was a shill for Wily after all, allying with Light in order to derive more evidence to use in his new media to frame him in the eyes of the public. She is failing, although we do not know if by choice or by circumstance.
