Yep, this is one of the places you can take these sort of questions
- Character yes, band no
- "Do It Yourself" Theme Tune, definitely.
- Spoken Word in Music covers the intro, Heavy Mithril covers the fantasy themes in rock music, and it's probably also Epic Rocking, as this sort of song tends to break the critical 5 min+ threshold. Oh, and feel free to add a recommend to Awesome Music

Done, though under which section of Awesome Music should I put it? Nothing fits really since its not from a medium.
EDIT: Ignore that, I somehow completly ignored the 'Music' Tab... ahem, blame me staying awake for too long for that one.

It's Power Metal or European Power Metal if split. And Apocalypse 1992 is 9 mins long.

Don't know if that is the correct place though still,
In the 'Music' tab of Awesome McCoolname, would it be viable to list the band Glory Hammer or their (fictional) character of Angus McFife XIII (yes that guy is named Angus McFife the thirtenth, how awesome does that sound?) Though I'm not entirely sure if those belong there since all other entries are for Real Life musicians and not the names of a character by them or their band.
Also on another note, does the Ending of Animation Runner Kuromi (in both the Japanese and German versions wrote and sung by the Voice actress playing Kuromi) qualify as "Do It Yourself" Theme Tune or Theme Tune Cameo? I lean towards the former but would like to be sure.
A third thing would be how the trope for a epic speech is, because the intro for the song Apocalypse 1992 is basically everything you think of as epic mangled together into one.
Here it is:
And lo, led by the valiant hero Angus McFife XIII
The forces of justice assembled their armies in the skies above Mars
In preparation for the epic battle against the demon horde
But on planet Earth, a far more sinister machination was afoot
In the dwarven caverns beneath the mighty citadel of Dundee
The evil wizard Zargothrax began to recite the dread incantation
Which would unlock the Chaos Portal to the galactic nexus
As foretold in the dark prophecy of Anstruther countless centuries ago
As he placed the goblin king's crystal key into the altar before him
Ancient runes began to glow on the surface of the portal
Soon the gateway would open and the elder god Korviliath
Of the eighteenth hell dimension would be unleashed onto the galaxy
The countdown! To universal annihilation! Had! BEGUN!
And here's the original as proof of its epicness.
