Define "cover" because in three replies we've already got two completley different ideas of what you're talking about.

Best Anthrax cover: Cowboy Song.
Worst Anthrax cover: Hard to say, but I don't care for Dethroned Emperor and No Time This Time much.
I know lot of you guys loathe Metallica but I think they did amazing job covering some songs on Garage Inc.

Has to be one of the TANKARD albums for the best coverart! I'd say "hair of the dog"...

Best music covers:

Baby Please Don't go - AC/DC

Dissident Agressor - SLayer

Diamonds and Rust - Priest

 

[johnnieCzech]

BTW who of you have heard Tori Amos' Raining Blood...and actually RECOGNIZED the song?

 

[spitzs lazy eye]

Burn In Hell by Dimmu Borgir is a good one. Another one I like is Venom's Heavens On Fire by Aura Noir.
Worst cover would be Metallica's take on Run To The Hills. I had to add that.

 

[Thrash fiend]

megadeth "these boots" was funny as fuck!

 

[DiscipleOfThePit]

Best: Iced Earth - Hallowed by thy Name
Worst: Megadeth - I ain't Superstitious

 

[Schurl]

Best cover I know: Motörhead´s "Iron Fist" covered by Sodom (actually better than the original);
Worst cover I know: Impetigo´s "Boneyard" covered by my ex-band.

I'm gunna say:
Best Cover Tunes.
"No More Mr Nice Guy" Megadeth Smokin' Cooper cover.
"Hurt" Johnny Cash. Cool Video to.
"Easy" Faith No More. It's their song now.
"The Godfather" Fantomas. Whole new twist.
Worst Cover Tunes.uke:
The huge list of Manson Cover tunes. They all suck.
"Papa don't Preach" Kelly Osbourne. Barf
"Music" Out of your Mouth. A really gay Industrial Metal Madonna.
Absolute Worst cover Tune EVER::zombie:
"Back in Black" Living Colour. Jesus Fuckin Christ. What the Fuck is that.
P.S. I didn't mention any Pop Princess Covers of '80s tunes 'cause it was just too obvious.

 

[Carcassian]

I'm gunna say:
Best Cover Tunes.
"No More Mr Nice Guy" Megadeth Smokin' Cooper cover.agreed
"Hurt" Johnny Cash. Cool Video to.agreed again
"Easy" Faith No More. It's their song now.big fnm fan, but this cheesy shit, while funny, really irritates me
"The Godfather" Fantomas. Whole new twist.not bad, but not a clasic
Worst Cover Tunes.uke:
The huge list of Manson Cover tunes. They all suck.never a truer word said
"Papa don't Preach" Kelly Osbourne. Barfyup.
"Music" Out of your Mouth. A really gay Industrial Metal Madonna.never heard it, but the idea is ghastly
Absolute Worst cover Tune EVER::zombie:
"Back in Black" Living Colour. Jesus Fuckin Christ. What the Fuck is that.I guess you never heard the Hard Corps version. Even worse - and with extra added rap
P.S. I didn't mention any Pop Princess Covers of '80s tunes 'cause it was just too obvious.

Hmmmmmm...ok.....

good cover songs:
C.o.c. - Lord of this world (better than the original)
Vader - I.F.Y. (weird to hear Vader satanise a Depeche Mode track)
Anthrax - Dethroned Emperor (I love most cover versions of this track)
Vader - Freezing moon (I know most of you grim and tr00 bm freaks will hate that suggestion)
Daemon - Symptom of the universe (brilliant version)

SODOM Rawks! ALl their covers are at least OK, the THIN LIZZY cover of "cold sweat" also kicks! and "Don't Walk away" by TANK, even the "surfing bird" cover on the "M 16" album kick arse
