A Tribute to Symphony X

[Grom Hellscream]

Imagine...
Year 2008.
There is going to be born "A tribute to SX"!
How do you think, what songs (existing now) will be there, and who will perform them?

I'd like to hear :
1. Evolution - Rhapsody
2. Fallen - ARK with Jorn Lande
3. Egypt - Dream Theater
4. In the Dragon's Den - Nevermore
5. Of Sins and Shadows - Metallica
6. Inferno - Evergrey
7. Dressed to Kill - Opeth
8. Wicked - Pantera
9. Accolade - Arjen Lucassen and his friends

Your suggestions?

 

[Yngvai X]

Dunno, but I know I'd like to be on there playing Sea of Lies or Inferno .

 

[Polyeidus]

5. Of Sins and Shadows - Metallica

You mean the NEW Metallica, when all the current members are replaced, right?

 

[Brood of Evil]

Hah, Metallica should be like Menudo, all the members were replaced when they reached certain age, although, I think with metallica it's a bit overdue.

3. Egypt - Dream Theater
4. In the Dragon's Den - Nevermore

7. Dressed to Kill - Opeth
8. Wicked - Pantera
9. Accolade - Arjen Lucassen and his friends

I think you're the god damned man...

Although I think Rhapsody would do better with Accolade, Odyssey, Damnation Game, or Out of the Ashes.

I'd like to see Dark Moor do Masquerade, also.

Still, sweet picks, dude.

 

[Mr. Shred-ididle]

Rhapsody would be the perfect chiose for Evolution because of the speediness and the "happy" chorus.

Rhapsody would be the perfect chiose for Evolution because of the speediness and the "happy" chorus.

Rhapsody would be perfect for any song that a character is either riding his trusted steed, or is hearing alot of clanging and metal crashing into metal on the field of battle. I love them.

 

[theodyssey]

i don't care what anyone says... rhapsody ownz

 

[Polyeidus]

Oh, I love them. I just bought two of their cd's today.

 

[theodyssey]

i paid 35 bucks for the limited edition of power of the dragonflame with bonus dvd... don't regret it at all... worst videos i have ever seen, but still they kick ass.

 

[Macy]

I don't want any of those bands covering our precious Symphony X. That's dishonouring them (except maybe Arjen) . I could list some bands that I conscider would do a great job but they ain't metal. The one that always gives me the biggest chill is the singe. Come one, who could ever do justice to Russell's voice!?

 

[The Yngster]

Rhapsody should do The Relic!

 

[Grom Hellscream]

Rhapsody would be the perfect chiose for Evolution because of the speediness and the "happy" chorus.

That was my thoughts too!

Gooj joke¡¡¡¡ Are you sure Luca Turilli and company have the level to perform Evolution, i mean, i dont see Rhapsodys bassist playing Leponds lines.

Metallica¡¡¡¡¡ Do you want to hear Sins and Shadows, with the horrible voice of Metalllicas songer, give me a break¡¡¡¡

James Labrie singing: ¡¡Raise my minions from the deep of this abyss¡¡¡¡ ????? It would kill my ears

 

[Divine Wings Of Tragedy]

i would love to see metallica take a shot at of sins and shadows, yea maybe its one of the easiest syx songs but let kirk do the solo LOL

LOL you are funny dude. ARK wouldnt have Jorn back after all the shite he pulled on them. Rhapsody is just a joke in general. Metallica will be retired. Pantera just plain stopped makin music together. By 2008 at the rate LaBrie is goin he wouldnt be able to hold a not for more than 2 seconds.

In actuallity, i cant see any Symphony X song being covered

 

[choetus]

mmm, i really like your thought's about that tribute

I think it needs one more song on that cd

The Eyes of Medusa - sepultura

(if they still were togheter )

 

[Luis]

In actuallity, i cant see any Symphony X song being covered

I totally agree

 

[Kate Bush Rules!]

Why not?

 

[Hyoukinmono]

I think that the idea of a tribute album is to have bands do good versions of the songs, but to put their own personality into the song, so I think that almost all of the suggestions are good. (An Opeth-style version of Dressed to Kill would be freaky. Mellow acoustic on the verses, then crunchy guitar and growling on the chorus.)

The only one I really have an issue with is Metallica being on there. I mean, don't the bands have to actually be able to basically play the songs? I'm tired of ripping Metallica apart for that "St. Wanker" farce, so I'll just leave it at that.

Yeah, Rhapsody would be great for Out of the Ashes. I'm imagining it right now, and it sounds pretty good!

Of course, it'll never be as good as the original, but interesting versions would be a lot of fun.

How about a reggae tribute to Symphony X? Out of the "Ashes" would take on a whole new meaning...(You know, the whole pot-smoking Rasta man thing. Yes, I know. Explaining an joke ruins the joke.)
