Cover song suggestions?

[Lee_B]

We're looking to expand our live set and give us a few more options in terms of variety. Any suggestions out there for songs you think would fit our style, or songs that you can imagine we could rework to fit our style?

Post ideas here!

Cheers

Lee

Funnily I would suggest a song with you growling or something, might be very cool I think, just for a change!

 

[Six-winged Seraph]

The Gathering - In Motion #1, I think would be be cool to hear....

 

[Thonolan]

Hmmm...

Symphony X - "The Accolade", "Accolade II" or "Awakenings"
Opeth - "Harvest" or "Closure"
Conception - "A Million Gods"


Not very heavy stuff, I know...

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

What about Slayer ? You're just 100% sure to destroy any venue with a Slayer cover haha... Just "UNLEASH THE FURY" at the gigs.

 

[Mazah]

Opeth actually might work really good.

 

[Sepsis]

I may be a little late on this one but here are a couple idears:

Loreena McKennett - The Mummer's Dance
Metallica - Nothing Else Matters
Pantera - Cemetary Gates
Emperor - In the Wordless Chamber

Cheers!

Now i know!!! Alone by Arcturus! Or anything by Arcturus really. It would fit like binoculars on a moose!

 

[Sepsis]

Damn, sir! good call on that! 'Alone' is probably their best song and lyrically it's not too dissimilar from To-Mera

 

[Black Rain]

Opeth coverrr

 

[Lacrymosa]

I'm going to go way out and suggest something by Theatre of Tragedy; entirely different band but with similarly haunting female vocals and you could totally make it your own!

 

[Tet]

Duran Duran -- "Planet earth" (yes, I'm serious)
Judas Priest -- "Evening star"
Dio -- "Rainbow in the dark"
Metallica -- "Fade to black"

What's Up - 4 Non Blondes

 

[Slaindreamer]

Lee I guess I'm too late to make any suggestion? I've been a bit distant lately .
Any update with what you lot have come up with.....or will that be kept as a surprise for performance time?
I'm hoping it's something I will know!

 

[Lee_B]

Well, we're definitely doing "Wicked" by Symphony X. Another "less conventional" song is being worked on, but will only be revealed if it gets anywhere.

 

[King Chaos]

This is obviously too random, but I would love to hear it done by to-mera... for the more proggy bastards among us: Killer Banshee by Sun Caged.

Or maybe some classic Dream Theater... Another Day for a ballad, or Pull me under for something with a bit more balls.

They're already playing "Under a Glass Moon" since the very first show.

Wicked might sound strange, hehe... I cannot imagine Julie singing this one, but it will be cool to hear.

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

They already cover "Under a Glass Moon" live

EDIT: Damn, you beat me to it...

 

[Thonolan]

Btw...

Funnily I would suggest a song with you growling or something, might be very cool I think, just for a change!

And why not Julie growling?

 

[Slaindreamer]

Btw...



And why not Julie growling?

.......or perhaps even both. Double onslaught of vocal abuse
If the song called for that of course...
