In Honor of Friday, Here’s a Guy Shredding the Star Wars Soundtrack

May The Forced Collaborations Be With You

As we read earlier in the week, Disney bought Lucasfilm for $4.05 billion and announced a 2015 release for Star Wars: Episode 7.  While that’s both cause for celebration (the saga continues! Disney did Avengers!) and concern (cash grab risks, Darth Mickey, epic nerd rage), it also means that we have a reason to revisit a story from a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.  To that end, feast your eyes on YouTube shredder extraordinaire Erock and his fusion of metal with the best moments from John Williams’ timeless Star Wars score.  It may not be a new clip, but it never felt more timely.

(Thanks are in order to Cutter over at Hangar 19 for sending us this.  We hear that radio show of his is pretty good.)
