I liked their covers of "Hallowed Be Thy Name," "God of Thunder," and "Screaming for Vengeance" in particular. "Creatures of the Night" is enjoyable, too. My only complaint is that the covers are pretty much straight covers (especially BOC's "Burnin' For You"). I tend to like it better when a band successfully puts their own stamp on the song, such as Nevermore's covers of Paul Simon tunes, Metallica's treatments on Garage. Inc., and Judas Priest's famous covers of "Diamonds and Rust" and "Green Manalishi." |
Exactly.
I think the same thing about Overkill's Coverkill.

| Fade to Bluegrass is a Metallica tribute record done by a blue grass band called Iron Horse. It's actually pretty good. |

If they were to do one, it'd probably come out before Legend III:II. Poor Eric, makes one wonder if he'll ever finish it the way things have been going for him. |

| I remember that there was going to be years ago a death metal Doors tribute record called Universal Grind, but The Doors lawyers put a stop to it. |

Yes, then maybe there could actually be some guitars in the music.
You know who would do a smokin' cover of Saviour Machine? Biogenesis! :metal:
