great cover songs by metal artists

[Chryst Krispies]

Lacuna Coil's Enjoy the Silence was another great cover, cause I didn't even like the original at first but I had to do a double take.

 

[Mancha]

System of a Down "Metro" is a Berlin cover. I just love the original song, but the cover was also cool in a different way.

Wrathchild America doing Pink Floyd's "Time"

was on their 1st cd "Climbing the Walls"

essential for metal cover tunes

oh and Saigon Kick doing "Space Oddity"

was on their cd "Water" .... Helloween did a great version too but for some reason I really really liked SK's version better
