It wasn't actually SOAD who covered it. Someone just said it was by them but it's actually by a band called Syd. Just thought I'd share I'm suprised that no one has put Avril Lavigne's extremely crap covers in their dislikes list I shall post my lists when I can be arsed.
Favourite: Biffy Clyro - Buddy Holly (Weezer) The Bronx - Los Angeles (X) Dead Kennedys - Rawhide theme Fantomas - Chariot Choogle (T-Rex) Rage Against The Machine - Maggie's Farm (Bob Dylan) Rage Against The Machine - Fuck Tha Police (NWA) Hated: Atreyu - You Give Love A Bad Name (Bon Jovi)
FAVOURITE. Arch Enemy - Aces High (Iron Maiden) Cannibal Corpse - No Remorse (Metallica) Children of Bodom - Aces High (Iron Maiden) Death - Painkiller (Judas Priest) Fear Factory - Millenium (Killing Joke) Hypocrisy - Black Metal (Venom) Opeth - Soldier of Fortune (Deep Purple) Pantera - Electric Funeral (Black Sabbath) Pantera - Hole In The Sky (Black Sabbath) Pantera - Planet Caravan (Black Sabbath) Snoop Dogg - Sad But True (Metallica) Throwdown - Baby Got Back (Sir Mix Alot) Trivium - Master of Puppets (Metallica) NOWHERE NEAR FAVOURITE. Arch Enemy - Symphony of Destruction (Megadeth) Fear Factory - I Will Follow (U2) Pantera - Cold Gin (Kiss) Pantera - Whiplash (Metallica) Painkiller or Hole In The Sky are probably my most favourites. I feel bad for the shitty pantera covers, as they are victims of ridiculous alcohol consumption, while Symphony of Destruction was simply....horrendous.
From the bootlegs I have, I dig The Mars Volta's cover of Interstellar Overdrive by Pink Floyd. I love how it segues into the jam nicely.
