Pretty crazy stuff you've come up with there... Good concept (although your thread may get closed by default my friend...) I just can't be bother to come up with that kind of stuff right now. Too much work right now.
 
This thread is ridiculous and virtually serves no purpose whatsoever. Normally I would just close it, but I'll leave it up to one of the other moderators to decide what to do.

Jethro Tull Tribute album

Kiuas has already done an amazing cover of "Hunting Girl." An entire album of metal tribute to the great Tull would be incredible. So many of their songs lend themselves to metal interpretations.

"Aqualung" "Cross-eyed Mary" "Locomotive Breath" "Broadsword" "Slow Marching Band" "Minstrel in the Gallery" "Cold Wind to Valhalla" "Songs From the Wood" "Orion" "Something's On the Move" "Witch's Dance" and of course "Thick As a Brick"
 
Limbonic Art Tribute:

Anaal Nathrakh - "Suicide Commando"
Anorexia Nervosa - "Infernal Phantom Kingdom"
Darkspace - "Beneath the Burial Surface"
Kataxu - "Pits of the Cold Beyond"
Obsidian Gate - "In Abhorrence Dementia"
Old Man's Child - "Symphony in Moonlight and Nightmares"
Summoning - "Moon in the Scorpio"
1349 - "Towards the Oblivion of Dreams"
 
Why? Discussing what bands can best "cover" bands they're influenced by is relevant enough, I'd say, to warrant a thread...especially if you go into nuances when you're picking like I did for Devourment. I picked the Devourment songs which are most suited to the styles of slam each band displays. All of them are playing downtuned brutal death metal with guttural vocals, etc. but they're all distinctly different in approach and have their own unique flavor...so when you take those kind of things into account with your picks, it opens up a new window of things to think about when choosing.
