Best Covers

Two amazing covers from this talented kid.

My favorite cover of the past year or so. Force Publique doing "today" of Smashing Pumpkins. Type of music is called Darkwave. Checked out some other stuff from this band and genre, at best its a cool "immature" sound, that is much less appealing without the terrific source material.


Boston band Bad Rabbits doing Smashing Pumpkins "1979" something of a Modern Rock take. Rabbits original material msotly serves to show you how good of a song "1979" is and how a meh band can sound great using a top-notch song.

This is fun. It's an acapella medley instead of a straight cover.

I recently rediscovered The Protomen (Rather dark, Mega Man-inspired concept albums? Sure, I'm down.), and was very pleased to see that they'd released a recording of one of their Queen tribute shows. I was even more pleased when I actually started listening to it.


I also ran across this a few days ago:

On the topic of guitar covers this guy has them nailed tons of movie/TV/Game covers adapted to metal. His entire video library on Youtube has some excellent stuff.

I get a lot of enjoyment from the choke "giggle*. Song is catchy as fuck.

Well, since it doesnt seem to be in here yet, I remind you of-

These guys are straight up fucking amazing. More often than not, their covers are WAY better than the original song! Their arrangements are freaking GENIUS too!

Ben Harper doing 'My Fathers House'

Was looking for a version of this on Youtube. This Video made me really emotional for some reason.

Just because it made me smile hearing Slayer on a banjo
