This cover is well done

[HumanDecay666]

I thought this was neat

[dreamshell]

i mean tbh i was pretty sure this was just the original song till about the 3min mark when the heavier, robot-y sounds kicked in

[HumanDecay666]

Yeah, like 90% of covers vary very little from the source material lol

[JimothyZombie]

Covers that are approached with more vision are my thing. Like this one is ok, and faithful to the source.

I like the Anix cover of Cry Little Sister.



Scandroid's cover of Shout is tops, but I'm sure you know that one already.

[HumanDecay666]

I actually didn't like Scandroids covers of Shout or Thriller lol I didn't like the originals, either, though lol

Tea Party cover of Joy Division's Isolation

It's almost a really good cover.

[HumanDecay666]

I dig it

[JimothyZombie]

I think it would be there if it was a little on the raw side. It's a bit slick, but it's pretty good.

I love Marc Bolan's cover of Blowin in the Wind:



Apparantly he used the name "Toby Tyler", then he went on to John's Children, then after that Tyrannosaurs Rex/T.Rex

Tea Party cover of Joy Division's Isolation

It's almost a really good cover.

hadn't heard the original before, tho they sound practically the same to me which is sorta lame. joy division's has some quirkier instrumentation that i prefer, but as blasphemous as it may sound ian curtis' vocals for the song leave me cold. but so do jeff martin's. basically they both stink imo.

i friggin love transmission by the tea party, tho.

[dreamshell]

relatedly, gyroscope by the tea party & a cover by melechesh. not usually into the brand of metal melechesh does, but what can i say i like em

[JimothyZombie]

It's not meant to be a heartwarming song tho, you blasphemous... blasphemour. That said I'm all about the Joy Division and I forgot how to enjoy Tea Party.

Deftone's cover of Duran Duran's The Chauffeur. Hardly a new cover, but I hadn't heard it till recently. In my opinion it can't compete with the original, which as far as I've heard, was the bands only real song of note. Never the less, it is still an interesting cover. The video clip of the original was amazing too.

[dreamshell]

the sounds are very different. duran duran going for something poppy with a dark undertone, while the deftones lay that early 2000s doomy grunge on thick & i dig it. must be the mallgoth in me. idk i like both

the original vid has given me new appreciation for lingerie, tho

[JimothyZombie]

Yes, they are both totally different, and I do like both. That's what makes a good cover for me, taking something and making it different. I am a sucker for 80s synth pop though.
