[Jrgen]

Atrocity featuring liv kristine - Shout (tears for fears)

The entire album is just covers of pop songs. There are a few pop covers on their album Gemini aswell.

There's also Therion's cover of ABBA's Summernight City.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Nevermore- "Sound of Silence" (Simon and Garfunkel)

Pretty much the fucking best cover ever.

 

[Astrum]

murderdolls-white wedding (billy idol)

pantera-various hendrix covers (little wing, etc.)

alien ant farm (metal if you wish...) - smooth criminal (MJ!)

[Nemesis_lxix]

In Blackest Velvet -Losing my religion (rem)
the rest i know were mentioned

 

[Nemesis_lxix]

cob -somebody put something in my drink (?)

EDIT: originaly by the Ramones (I had to look it up)

 

[Alongside Death]

Murderdolls (not metal) - White Wedding (Billy Idol).

 

[Stormwatch]

Motley Crue (sort of metal at the time) covered
"Helter Skelter" although the Beatles version was heavier than fucking Slayer!

 

[Ender Rises]

Amorphis - Light My Fire (The Doors)
Acid Drinkers - The Wall (Pink Floyd)
Korn - The Wall (Pink Floyd)
Type O Negative - Hey Pete (Jimi Hendrix - Hey Joe)

Wow, are any of those decent? The Korn version of Another Brick in the Wall is the only song by them I can stand.

 

[Ender Rises]

pantera-various hendrix covers (little wing, etc.)

Mebbe it's been mentioned already?
Pantera -- Cat Scrath Fever (The NUGE)

 

[SteveO)))]

Pretty much the fucking best cover ever.

I would strongly agree with that

 

[Mutant]

Amorphis - Light My Fire (The Doors)
Acid Drinkers - The Wall (Pink Floyd)
Korn - The Wall (Pink Floyd)
Type O Negative - Hey Pete (Jimi Hendrix - Hey Joe)

Wow, are any of those decent? The Korn version of Another Brick in the Wall is the only song by them I can stand.

For me Acid Drinkers' The Wall is better than Korns version and Hey Pete is cooler than the original.

I don't like the original Light My Fire so even Amorphis' version is nothing special for me especially compared to Amorphis original songs from Tales From The Thousand Lakes (my favorite metal album of all time).

 

[KMADD]

Sepultura-Bullet In The Blue Sky by U2 even though i cant stand post max
sepultura this was a good cover.
BTBAM Kickstart My Heart by Motley Crue hilarious!
BTBAM The Day I Tried To Live by Soundgarden
