Fall Out Boy's cover of Love Will Tear Us Apartâ„¢ is the one cover I can respect. Its adds a nice modern twist to a classic!

The internet is ruining us guys. Prince was right. When I look back and think about where everything started going wrong in my life, it's right around the time I started with all of this internet shit.

>mu contrarions talking about 21st century schizoid man cover by flaming lips

>what is Green Day - Like a Rolling Stone

Wow user, that's pretty shit taste.

I respect ambitious covers. "Faithful" covers can be good but what's really point if it's exactly the same? So I respect when someone tries to add something new to a song.

I've always liked Fall Out Boy's cover of Beat It

>covers better than the original artist could ever come close to doing
>"they butchered it" comments

Here's an example of when an "original" cover goes horribly wrong:

Seconded

What about his rendition of My Girls by Animal Collective? It was seriously horrible

What the fuck

Agreed. While I can say I like it as a whole, The Flaming Lips/Stardeath and the White Dwarfs cover of DSOTM was pretty neat and I admire how they took the source material and made it their own.

>but not the dope type
Fuck, I didn't even know this existed

>just raps over the song lyrics, as is
Lazy and terrible

>every S7X cover

Holy Diver was pretty neato except no one can touch Dio's octave range tho

Man, I love the Deftones.

huh never heard this before. actually not bad was expecting worse tbfh

MBV does Wire

It's an uncanny valley kind of thing going on. You're better off making the cover radically different so people appreciate it as it is and not compare it so much to the original

>band covers their own song

They also covered Caress by Drive Like Jehu, and it was pretty good.

>extremely faithful to the original
desu whats the point
the only thing differentiating it from that point is stuff like the singer's voice or the guitar sound which can sound super cheesy e.g. van halen's cover of you really got me

XTC

I genuinely can't tell the difference between the David Bowie version and Bauhaus version of Ziggy Stardust.

Quick lads, post GOAT covers

Love this one

Someone covered After the Flood and it's actually half decent, that's quite commendable.

>3d rate thrash metal band covers Danger Zone
>Make it sound generic and soulless with a shit guitar tone that fucks the whole cover up
>Fans like it because \m/ HEAVY METAL!!!! \m/


youtube.com/watch?v=MY5SLdM74EU

Seriously. The people in those comments think that's better than the original song.

*3rd rate thrash metal band

Their cover of Savory by Jawbox wasn't great though imo.

>A7X
>better than Pantera

Bad bait.

No user, it's not the internet's fault, it's causality. The existence of internet given the possibility to more creativity, which causes more and bigger leisure or entertaiment community, which leads to the proliferation of the famous known specimen known as *haters*.

The 21-year gap between those recordings is REALLY obvious.

This was actually a good idea

jesus fuck

Always liked Big Black's cover of The Model for how decidedly unKraftwerky it is
