Elmofongo: Well better Jimi Hendrix then that guy
(also Jimi Hendrix was No.1 in Rolling Stones list of best guitarist)
That's my point. Jimi Hendrix, Freddie Mercury, Axl Rose, Angus Young, etc. all belong on the list. Billie Joe Armstrong does not.

I found out about this song through following (via Twitter) a record label.

I'm not so much of a death metal fan these days, but this cover is bloody brilliant!

As far as covers go, I love this one:

Emperor covering King Diamond's The Gypsy

There's also a fantastic Darkthrone tribute album called "Holy Darkthrone" which has a number of fantastic covers. In fact, most of the covers are better than the originals. Have a look here and give them a listen:

That was as good as rape.
Some amazing progressive metal from Dream Theater:

Also very relevant to me, as I have frequent panic attacks. This song always makes me feel stronger.

LOL

So you trade industrial metal's answer to pop with death metal's answer to pop and call it more metal?

I quite like them both, but they're distinctly entry level. Sort of like a bike with stabilisers.
