Right, so like I said, we're doing two tracks this week. Now that we're done with the whole run of challenging the top five spots, it's time to get back to our regular editions. No better place to jump back in than with an often forgotten Genesis classic, Vectorman! Here is, appropriately enough, Metalhead!

Gave it a 7.

Barely know or remember anything about this game but as a song, its decent and very much that synthesis style music Genesis was very well known for its games.
