Both are very good, but I miss Dolores O'Riordan. Her voice was so strong!

reply

No one had a voice like hers.

reply

Right on dude

reply

I'll say Bad Wolves here because I saw it live and weren't they donating the money from that track to her kids?

reply

Yeah, l think that is what they did. It was supposed to be a collaboration.

reply

I think they did yeah. I remember hearing about that at the time. True class shown by those guys.

reply

RIP Dolores 🫡 thank you for your music.

I've got to tip the hat to bad wolves on this one. They just bring an element of as if they're crying out to society to actually listen for a change. They're very good.

But I do appreciate a good twist on a classic, like the one the Star Fucking Hipsters offer:

This was super cool and ana Ng bought a really different feeling to it.

reply

Yeah, I think having two different singers on it makes for a nice change of pace.

reply

It does but I gotta nod to ana Ng I think.

Really tough call

I don't remember if I did this before. But here we go. The offspring Vs five finger death punch.

The original

The cover

I love the raw feeling and emotion portrayed in the FFDP version but the offspring will always have a nostalgic place in my heart.

reply

I've got to go with FFDP! I like the group in general, and I really like their version of this song. It can be a tough listen some days though.

reply

It can be really difficult to hear some times. It's very emotive.

The cover is pretty catchy, but I am partial to the original.
I remember getting the CD as a gift for my birthday!

reply

I just can't get behind it. It doesn't feel like a cover, or a tribute, it feels like they've just ripped off the music and added their lyrics and rebranded it.

I'm sure everything is above board but it just feels off to me.

reply

I feel like any of that dance, electro, techno, etc are never really covers. 1 artist always attaches their thing and then so does the next guy and so on and so forth. It's why all those type of tracks have like 52 people listed as "featuring" 😆

reply

Its hard because its pretry catchy.
They took the tune and couple words and made it their own.

Volbeat

I would have a hard time choosing between these two, I really like them both! Country metal could be an interesting genre.

reply

I'm not sure what I think about that, do I love it?, do I hate it? I have no idea

reply

😂😂😂😂 I'll admit I sometimes have strange musical tastes! Although, I can never decide what I think about that jazz cover of Enter Sandman.

reply

That combat cover was really really good. I might have to give the nod to them, I wasn't expecting it.
