Cool, but odd cover songs by Metal groups

[Crimson Velvet]

I think Amorphis' version of Light My Fire is pretty cool...

 

[delize]

Coroner - (The cover version of the Beatles' "I Want You".)

 

[Gentleman of the Lake]

Place of Skulls - Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood (The Animals)

I think Amorphis' version of Light My Fire is pretty cool...

Personally, I think its terrible...

Children of bodom - Rebel Yell

The Black Dahlia Murder - Paint it Black

 

[MetalHeadMarc]

Dude, as some of you have mentioned, It was Demons and Wizards that covered white room. If some one wasn't dling songs from kazaa, one might know better.

Children of bodom - Rebel Yell

The Black Dahlia Murder - Paint it Black

Black Dahlia Murder never covered paint it black, its actually another band located near them....sorry i cant remember their name but they sound very similar to BDM

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

Alot of bands have covered Charles Manson songs. Alot of them not metal, but there close enough

Guns 'n Roses covered Manson's Look at Your Game Girl. It's a hidden track on the Spaghetti(spell?) Incident.

Marilyn Manson stole the words "I had a little monkey, I sent him to the country and I fed him gingerbread, Along came a choo-choo and knocked my monkey koo-koom, and now my monky's dead", for his song "My Monkey". Those wordes were first used in Charles Manson's "Mechanical Man".

M. Manson also did an acoustic verson of C. Manson's "Sick City"

Dillinger Escape Plan-Rebel Yell

Wow, would you like me to take a fucking self-portrait of me with my Demons and Wizards album or what? I said I made a mistake, why do you guys have to be all nazi about it?

[Oblivious Maximus]

Six Feet Under- "TNT" (AC/DC)
Six Feet Under- "Sweet Leaf" (Black Sabbath) The song does fit Chris Banres very well, though.

 

[MasterOLightning]

In Flames does really good covers, actually. Land of Confusion is good. Murders in the Rue Morgue is good too. They did a few others. I can't believe no one mentioned Fear Factory's In Cars.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

It definitely is. Have you also heard her cover version of "Smells Like Teen Spirit"?

Yeah, probably one of the greatest covers ever. She manages to bring out the ultimate feeling of that song through a totally different direction, atitude ect then Kurt did... a masterpiece...

Every song that band has is a strange metal cover song...

 

[blakmetalemp]

HIM (His Infernal Majesty) covered Chris Isakk's song Wicked Game and it FUCKING KICKS ALL KINDS OF ASS!

Also, "Sepultura covering "Orgasmatron" by Motorhead" Sepultura's cover of Orgasmatron is so badass.

 

[desert_demon]

Nevermore's cover of The Sound of Silence (Simon and Garfunkel). It bears absolutely NO resemblance to the original save for the lyrics.
