Anybody have any good metal covers to recommend? A few of my favorites:

Machine Head - Hallowed be Thy Name (Maiden)
Pantera - Planet Caravan (Sabbath)
Weedeater - Gimmie Back My Bullets (Skynrd)
Pantera - The Badge (Poison Idea)

I love Thin Lizzy's Whiskey in The Jar, but wasn't a huge fan of the Metallica version.

There is a bunch, but I'll add the first two off the top of my head that I love.

Heathen -- Kill the King (Rainbow)
Sepultura -- Orgasmatron (Motorhead)

If you like Machine Head's cover of Maiden...which I think is fantastic, give their version of Witch Hunt by Rush a try.

You don't approve of the coal chamber remake?

Deftones Simple Man



I love Skynyrd and I like the Deftones, but I really don't like the vocals in this version.

I've always loved Disturbed's version of Tears for Fears' "Shout"...my gym hype song.
