whats the best Judas Priest cover

^ Worst track on a Slayer album. It doesn't do much of anything that the original didn't (except for Araya being incapable of the shrieks in the chorus).
 
HBB doesn't like it? That's the ultimate stanp of approval.

It's an uninspired near-note-for-note rehash of Judas Priest's greatest and heaviest song. It even had the crazy, whammy-bar-raping lead guitar all prepared for them. They couldn't have picked an easier cover for them.
 
In general South of Heaven is an album I listen to maybe once a year or less. There are good songs on it but there's something generally unappealing about it.
 
The problem is that it's a fairly consistent downhill slide until it plunges with the cover and then returns with Spill the Blood (which kind of feels like it serves the same purpose as the title track, only not as good which makes it anticlimactic). The songs should probably be shuffled around a bit.

You're an uninspired note-for-note rehash of everyone in existence who has ever had a shitty opinion on metal tbh. That cover rules. Not terribly original, but it fucking rules.

Edit: couldn't have picked a better 7200th post.
 
Well that was fucking cool. No surprise though, Fates Warning would be good at that type of thing.
