I'm a big Arch Enemy fan, in fact I probably prefer them to CoB, but I'm sorry, CoB's version slays AE's into the ground. I'd go as far as saying I like CoB's as much as Iron Maiden's...in fact, it's only Bruces awesome voice that keeps me coming back to Maiden's...a shame Alexi's voice doesn't quite cut it! One of the best covers I've heard...although, Death's version of "Painkiller" slays as well.
I have the two versions. And for me the COB version its much better. One of the best covers ive ever heard.... and Painkiller by Death rules too!!!! I agree with Hellion!!!
I dont know which one to pick... I love them both!!! I love Arch Enemy and Children of Bodom, and when I heard both of their covers of Aces High I just went 'WOW', but Im sure I remember the AE version getting me more excited, so I voted for that.
