Adventure Rock 

Rock and Roll music that takes you on an adventure. Similar to Adventure Metal, the umbrella term of adventure rock also encompasses the softer genres. All Adventure Rock music shares characteristics in name, style, and subject matter. Bands often have names depicting destinations or traveling, such as Journey, Kansas, Boston, Foreigner, Rush. AND/OR they create songs with different movements and fancy solos and develop fantastic and epic sounds and experiences: Queen, Tesla, Van Halen, Whitesnake. The ultimate Adventure Rock band is, of course, Led Zeppelin.

Rocket Knight Adventures

An under-rated Sega Genesis game. This intense side-scrolling adventure starred Sparkster, a sickenly cute yet badass oppossum in big blue armor. This title had 7 stages of adventure in which Sparkster has to rescue his beau, Princess Sherry, and save the world from the damn dirty pigs. This was Konami-quality stuff right here. Solid graphics, fluid animation, catchy tunes, challenging gameplay, and screen-filling bosses made this a true buried treasure of the 16-bit era. If Contra was taken over by furry woodland creatures, this would be the result.
It's Rocket Knight Adventures, bitch!
