Barking Spiders Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Today I felt like putting on some aggressive music in the car and went for Burn The Priest's Legion XX, which contains 10 covers of stuff recorded before they became Lamb of God. My fave track here is their take on Big Black's Kerosene as it has a really dirty growly bass sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicko Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 This may very well be controversial, but I prefer the Kula Shaker version of Hush to the original, and think Deep Purple's version is the worst of the three. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. IMO the DP version is a bit flimsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arctic Monkey’s Come Together was really good but not quite up tonight the original. Aerosmiths version should NEVER have been recorded. All covers should ADD to the original, like Joe Cocker and Ella Fitzgerald’s Can’t Buy Me Love. Edited April 20, 2022 by Chienmortbb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maude Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 What could be better than a beatboxing, doublebass playing, deep southern American? I really like this bluegrass cover of No Diggity and Thrift Shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really isn't - that is the best version of Easy (and one of the few on here that does beat the original. Sound of silence on the other hand is an abomination, and I like disturbed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunion Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) I always liked this cover of Tool 46 & 2 was a few years ago now but the drummer was a little beast. Edited April 20, 2022 by Bunion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casapete Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 The FNM cover of 'Easy' has me running for the off button if it's ever played on the radio. I'm guessing it's supposed to be ironic/ tongue in cheek and the vocal is okay, but I can't listen to the attempt at the guitar solo and the overall wooden feel of the song compared with the original. It's like it's trying to be the same and missing by a mile. 18 minutes ago, Mykesbass said: Sorry! Wouldn't life be dull if we all liked the same stuff?

SteveXFR Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Here's another one that may be controversial. I loved this cover back in the 90's. And a possibly less controversial cover of Of the kids are united which I think definitely beats the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
