Once upon a time...

[BotanyBoy]

In metal metal land there was a band, and they wrote a most tasty and awesomely Br00tal jam.......

No Remorse.....

Then they should have all died with cliff.

Then came the most Br00tal band of all time.....and covered the most Br00tal song Metallica ever wrote.....and they did the tune some justice.

I mean the corpsegrinder fucking crushes James Hetfield on this tune...Why you ask? Just look at his neck...

^^^That's what a voicebox with infinitely Br00tal growl looks like

Sorry.... even the young Hetfield had nothing on the corpsegrinder much less AARP Metallica, it's a fact.

As far as the music goes Cannibal Corpse is more than technically skilled enough to cover the track and do a fabulous job doing so. Some may say the song loses it's "feel" when covered...fuck that noise CC owned this track and made it their bitch, haterz gonna hate.


Anyhow..keep it metal GB. \m/

Ok, so I really love James Hetfield's voice. And I was kinda mad reading your post and not expecting to like Cannibal Corpse but I'm surprised that I actually enjoyed the cover more.

I'm not saying he's bad. Kill em' All -> And Justice For All....I have worn out more than 1 casset tape and blown through a couple copies of each CD over the years and know the lyrics and riffs to 90% of it.

Don't feel bad....the Corpsegrinder is a fuckin' freak....look at that neck.

Plus he's pretty much as metal as it gets.

Perfect form......

Other metal covers....let's talk about grunge gone deathcore....

So I love Alice n' fuckin Chains...

Jar of Flies , Dirt....man IDGAF who you are them R' solid ass albums.


Now fast forward about 18 years and metal has taken some questionable turns and obviously some questionable covers.

Them bones...

Original.

That song is nothing but pure American Rock n' Roll baby....


Suicide Silence...Them Bones....

IME it's a fail....and it's all in the voice. I thought the instrumental while a bit clunky isn't half bad...dig the big crunch from the newer gear. But the vocals...good god Layne Staley could wail.
