Dose Cod have an all cover song album??

Funny that some people still post their wrong guesses of cover songs. 3 Iron Maiden covers? Sure...

Maybe this list helps:

Mass Hypnosis (Sepultura cover / Beneath The Remains album) 1998
-Released on the Sepultural Feast - A Tribute to Sepultura album and also on the Japanese version of Something Wild.

Hellion (W.A.S.P. cover / W.A.S.P album) 1999 *
-The band played this one live already in 1998. It was originally recorded during the Hatebreeder session, but was re-recorded in 2000 during the Hate Me! session since the band wasn't happy with the first recording. Released on the Hate Me! single and some editions of Follow The Reaper.

No Commands (Stone cover / Stone album) 1999
-Released on the Downfall single, the Japanese version of Hatebreeder and the Tokyo Warhearts 12" LP's. Stone was a popular Finnish metal band and it's Roope Latvala's ex-band.

Don't Stop At The Top (Scorpions cover / Savage Amusement album) 2000
-Released on the Scorpions tribute album, the Deluxe Edition of Something Wild and the Finnish version of Follow The Reaper. Actually the song was going to appear on the Hate Me! single together with the King Diamond cover, but this idea was soon abandoned.

Shot In The Dark (Ozzy Osbourne cover / The Ultimate Sin album) 2000 *
-Released on the Japanese edition of Follow The Reaper and it was the only cover song which was recorded in the Abyss studio. Was played live in Europe 1999 and in Japan 2001.

Silent Scream (Slayer cover / South Of Heaven album) 2001
-Recorded already in 2001 with the Iron Maiden cover. It was planned for a Slayer tribute that never came out. Was released for the first time on the Deluxe Edition of Something Wild. Also appears on some editions of Hate Crew Deathroll.

Aces High (Iron Maiden cover / Powerslave album) 2001
-Recorded for the Iron Maiden tribute, wasn't featured on any COB releases but only on some compilations.

Somebody Put Something In My Drink (Ramones cover / Animal Boy album) 2002 *
-Played live only on the Dynamo festival in 2002 and in Finland in 2003. Released with the You're Better Off Dead! single.

Latomeri (Klamydia cover / Los Celibatos album) 2003
-Klamydia is a Finnish punk band. Vesku Jokinen (their singer) invited Alexander to play guitar on the Klamydia EP Seokset but Alexander insisted to get an opportunity to record a song with the whole band. Was recorded in a very short time, almost with one take only.

Rebel Yell (Billy Idol cover / Rebel Yell album) 2003
-Recorded in Janne's own Beyond Abilities studio, released only on "BESTBREEDER from 1997 to 2000" Japanese Best Of album. Clean vocals.

Bed Of Nails (Alice Cooper cover / Trash album) 2004
-After the first Alice Cooper cover song (The Man Behind The Mask) which the band recorded in 2002 during the Hate Crew Deathroll studio sessions wasn't good enough for the band, they decided to cover another song by the shock rocker. The version of Bed Of Nails pleased the whole band and was released on the Trashed, Lost & Strungout EP.

She Is Beautiful (Andrew W.K. cover / I Get Wet album) 2004
-Recorded in spring 2004 for the Trashed, Lost & Strungout EP with the Alice Cooper song. Alexi first had to convince some of the other members to cover this song. Alexi already played that song live with Andrew W. K. on the USA tour in spring 2004. Andrew is a huge fan of COB's music by the way.

Oops I Did It Again (Britney Spears cover / Oops I Did It Again album) 2005
-This cover song shocked many COB fans and this was exactly what the band wanted. Janne got the idea for it when Britney Spears was played in the tourbus and he suggested the others to record a song of her just for fun. Femals vocals performed by Jonna Kosonen. Released on the In Your Face single and on the Japanese edition of Are You Dead Yet?.

Talk Dirty To Me (Poison Cover / Look What the Cat Dragged In album) 2005
-Unspectacular cover song which pays tribute to the Poser/Glam Rock bands of the 80s which made Alexi a Metal fan. The solo in this song was played by Roope. Released on the Japanese edition of Are You Dead Yet?.


Waiting (King Diamond cover / Graveyard album) **
-The band recorded the song but it was never released, since they weren't happy with the results.

He's Back (The Man Behind The Mask) (Alice Cooper cover / Constrictor album) 2002 **
-The band recorded the song but it was never released, since they weren't happy with the results.

Sukset (Popeda cover / Harasoo album) 200? **
-The band recorded this cover of a Finnish Punk band somewhere between 2002 and 2003 but wasn't sure if it was good enough to be released.


Vitutuksen Multihuipennus (Impaled Nazarene cover / Suomi Finland Perkele album) 1995 or 1996 ***
-As crazy as it sounds, the band played this weird song live in their old days.

My Sky Is Darker Than Thine (Sentenced cover / North From Here album) 1997 ***
-In the early days they played a cover from Sentenced on their gigs.

We're Not Gonna Take It (Twisted Sister cover) 2001 ***
-Was played live in Finland, Spain and South-America 2001.


* Also performed live.
** Recorded, but never released.
*** Performed ONLY live, never recorded.


Please note that the band NEVER recorded Iron Maiden's The Trooper or Europe's Final Countdown.
The versions you might have seen on p2p programs are by Sentenced, Norther or Dispatched.
 
Wow. I haven't seen this many retards congregated in one place since I refereed a special olympics relay-race. Seriosuly, what the fuck kind of crack are you on?

I agree, a full cover CD is stupid. But if you think bands shouldn't do covers, kill yourself. Every band does a cover here and there as tribute to the artists they like. You're all a bunch of fucking morons for tihnking otherwise. :rolleyes:

Yeah I said it; you are morons.

And the Britney Spears cover was great. Sorry its not "tr00" enough for you. The band was having fun, and its fucking hilarious to see a melodic death metal/black metal/neoclassical metal band cover a pop tune. I think its fucking hilarious, and I enjoy it! So quit yer bitchin', you fucking dweebs. Its a hilarious song. You'll either love it or hate it. Clearly you don't love it.

I do think the orginals are better, but its great to hear the band do some covers and put their own spin on them. Its definatelly a creative take. So shut the fuck up already you babies. Fuck, and I'm not even that big of a "fan" of cob, and I'm still defending them this much :lol:

I'm just fueled by the blatant displays of stupidity here. Fuck you kids sucks.

Even Behemoths covered some pop songs! Albeit by obscure Polish pop groups. But fuck off seriouslt, i think its great when bands cover songs out of their genre. It sounds fucking cool. End of story.

If you have anything to say otherwise, I drect you to the uncleaned space between my ass cheeks; dig in.
 
hm i'm pretty confused about this final countdown stuff.....for a while even i thought COB did it but then realised it must have been norther...but THEN i found another one!! does anyone know who that could be? i think the norther one has guitars for the tune, but theres one with more of a resemblance to the original with the brassy sound! which *sounds* like COB but apparently they never did it....anyone know which is which? myabe norther did 2 lol or some other death metal band? :erk:

FUCK

Bed of nails, best cover.

You all know I'm right, some of u just don't like to admit it

Hell yeah, Bed of Nails is an awesome cover. I actually downloaded the whole Thrash album (by Alice Cooper) to get the original one, but it's nowhere near as cool as the COB version (which is strange, since the original is usually better when compared to covers by other bands).

I think the 2nd best cover is Don't Stop at the Top, although they did a pretty good job with Aces High, too (mostly just 'cause the keyboard adds a nice accompaniment to the guitar riff).
