Circle of Tyrants

[burning inside]

Man, Opeth should do more covers. Their cover of Celtic Frost's Circle of Tyrants is incredible; almost as good as the orginal. Its really cool to hear them play a different style of metal, especially since they do it so well.

 

[Obyeybyeogone]

Have you heard their cover of remember tomorrow?

 

[Russell]

Both are indeed amazing. Especially the drums on circle of tyrants and the vocals on remember tomorrow

 

[burning inside]

Yeah, I like that one too but not nearly as much as Circle of Tyrants. I actually think Opeth's version is better than the original, but that probably stems from the fact that I really don't like Bruce Dickinson's voice. I'm not the biggest Maiden fan.

Not to burst your bubble, but I think Circle of the Tyrants was originally recorded by Celtic Frost.

Never mind, now I realize you were talking about the other song.

Hehehe, yeah, that was a little bit ambiguous of me. I tend to type how I think sometimes.

isn't remember tomorrow sung by paul dianno and not bruce dickinson anyway?

 

[_Transparent_]

i love the 2 songs, and someone ages ago in the forum said that it ruined the album having them at the end. i was like, wtf! they're great songs, but i realised your point now (whoever you were) and just thought i'd mention that. anyway i'll just go cry off now after tonights result

Yeah DiAnno sings it and I think I like his voice more than Bruce's on that specific Maiden sound. Anyway both Remember Tomorrow and Circle of the Tyrants (is there a "the" really or not?) are performed really nice by Opeth.. they reveal pretty well how Opeth approaches music in 2 completely different ways.

Yeah, I guess so. Like I said, I'm not much of a maiden fan so I really don' t pay much attention to such things.

Actually, now that I look, it is Circle of THE Tyrants. That's how it's listed on Morbid Tales.

A typo, or so I've always thought.

 

[Soul Forlorn]

When I bought The Number of the Beast a few years ago it came with a bonus disc that has 2 songs, one being "Remember Tommorrow" live with Bruce singing.

 

[Russell]

Well, on the entire morningrise re-issue they spelt Mikaels name wrong

 

[Kushantaiidan]

I love the two covers. They do them so well, just like everything else they do..

and they fit damn well ont he end of Mayh....
:hotjump:

 

[musicholic]

Due to the circular way Opeth has of making albums, I at first thought they should leave albums in their original state. But I must agree that they are both too good of songs to leave off. MAYH is the first re-issue that I bought so I did not run into this with the first two albums.
