VERY NICE. Machine Head makes awesome covers. Their cover of House of Suffering is a great song in my opinion- I couldn't find a video of that one. :(


HELL YEAH! (who also did a cover of Stone Cold Crazy...)

Also, the Marmite of all Maiden covers... You either love or hate (I love.)

Sign - Run to the Hills

And now for something less controversial:

Rage Against The Machine - Kick Out The Jams

Great covers in my opinion (so don't flame me):
Creep by Axium (David Cook's old band)
Billie Jean by Chris Cornell
American Woman by Lenny Kravitz
Superproxy by Francis M.
Pare Ko by Spongecola
Harana by APO Hiking Society

Crappy Covers:
The KKK took my Baby Away by Marilyn Manson (scary in a sense, but not worth listening to much)
Kisapmata by Yasmien Kurdi
A Thousand Miles (great version, but the vocals ruin the fun)
Image
MY SONG:
Two Trick Pony by Sandwich
"I'd do anything to make her happy, even if it has to hurt me."
Black Moon Broods...

This is longestsoloever's cover of Through the Fire and Flames with the lead guitar combined to rhythm. He also did the some piano with a guitar itself! I say he did a good job.



Wow! I...like it live! With someone who can play it!

The worst cover by far is Dragonforce trying to play there own songs.

This is a "proper" cover of their music video

The guitar is awesome (like you'd ussually expect from Buckethead) but that singing... :thumbdown:

Still fun in FoF Hero 2, anyway.

It's not fair to put such a godly band among them.
