    I don't think it's bad at all. It stays true to the original song but it's still a slightly different take. There have been far worse NIN covers.

    Not amazing by any means, though.

    Maybe it's just that lady's voice. It sounds totally prepubescent. It's annoying.

    And I like Flyleaf. It just didn't work in that particular song, to me. But yeah, you're right. There's been far worse NIN covers. Mae comes to mind.

    The singer reminds me a lot of Avril from what I heard on a MTV commercial thingie. I kind of liked what I heard; I want to hear a little more.

    wow.

    i only heard 5 seconds of the girl singing the nin cover, and i threw up.

    no foolies.

    i can stand them, but i'm sick of hearing about them every 5 minutes at my school.

    :\

    :lol:

    I'm guessing you're not into metal that much then. There are hundreds of Christian bands that scream.

    I bet you're one of those kind of people who think that anything that is remotely Christian means that it's upbeat, always singing, no guitar distortion, positive, and usually involves a mention of God or Jesus.

    Get out from that rock you're living under, boy.

    I heard Flyleaf (without looking at the screen) and thought "wow Avril has gone harder now...and......she sucks :|."

    And there is my opinion of Flyleaf summed up right there.

    I have really never noticed a similarity between Flyleaf and Avril until this thread. Geeze, I really dislike Avril...I think Flyleaf is a billion times better.

    well, other than a select few artists, i cant stand the growling, etc...but i dont really pay attention to christian bands...im not a religeous person. at all. if a band is christian, and i listen to them, its coincidence....but i dont know exactly what "Genre" the artists i listen to are, because i basic see everything like rock, alt., metal, etc... as "Rock"....and everything else is either "rap, country, jazz" and stuff like that..........but dont get me wrong, i listen to what other people call "metal".....i listen to many different artists.....but as for Flyleaf...i say "Garbage"....she sounds like a sick nine-year-old...ha........but another site for them for those who enjoy their music is http://flyleafmusic.com

    That's a double-standard if there ever was one.
