What albums are these on?

 

[As-I-Lay-Dying]

Decapitated - Mandatory Suicide (Slayer)

 

[suspect]

Sonic Syndicate - All About Us (T.A.T.U. cover)


I think it's funny, and actually quite good.

 

[AchrisK]

Chucks painkiller was awesome! Maybe thats because I hate Priest too..

I hate both the original and the cover, in this case.

 

[AchrisK]

Best:
Iron Maiden - Cross Eyed Mary (Jethro Tull)
Monstrosity - Angel of Death (Slayer)
Realm - Elenor Rigby (Beatles)
Gory Blister - 1000 Eyes (Death)




Worst:
Hallows Eve - Sheer Heart Attack (Queen) is totally gay.

Defiance - Killers (Iron Maiden). Such a great song, and they managed to make it into a non-dynamic, lifeless hunk of crap.

Fatal Embrace - Bonded By Blood (Exodus). They don't play it right and they suck the life out of it.

 

[MURAI]

I do not think they're all as good as the originals but good anyway:

Decapitated - Mandatory Suicide (Slayer)
Decapitated - Lunatic of God's Creation (Deicide)
Sepultura - Procreation of the Wicked (Celtic Frost)
Malevolent Creation - Piece By Piece (Slayer)
Malevolent Creation - Reign In Blood (Slayer)
Monstrosity - Angel of Death (Slayer)
Impious - Innerself (Sepultura)
Impious - Fallen Angel (Possessed)
Iron Maiden - Electric Eye (Judas Priest)
Edge of Sanity - Criminally Insane (Slayer)
Obituary - Circle of the Tyrants (Celtic Frost)
Opeth - Circle of the Tyrants (Celtic Frost)*
Dying Fetus - Scum (Napalm Death)
Dying Fetus - Judgement Day (Integrity)

I dislike Opeth but they I was surprised they did the Celtic Frost well.

 

[Psychonaut]

Chucks painkiller was awesome! Maybe thats because I hate Priest too..

I used to like you...
