I was listening to an old album the other day (I'll get to which one in a second), and I thought that one of the songs would be a cool set addition at PP as a cover. So I thought this thread would be a good idea to have for people to think about what would be a good cover song and for which 1 band in particular.
I love Jorn and will be expecting to hear 3-4 covers in his set anyways, so I'll just exclude him from my thinking as a cover from him is almost guaranteed.
So as to what I was listening to...as much as I currently loathe them and they are probably THE most overplayed 'Metal' band ever now...I was listening to Metallica "...And Justice For All" and basking in the utter brilliance of their last true quality album, I thought that a certain song would make a great cover. So for me...
"Blackened" would be covered very aptly by Mercenary.
I think the vocal contrasting of Mercenary would do quite well within the song and their heaviness would work well with the power of the original recording.
I'd like to hear others thoughts on this too.
