Great tunes, I often "WISH" that Kenny would of never split from Savage Grace.

Megadeth - Devils Island

Overkill-Fear His Name

That song can have a very Christian message to it.

Really? Besides the title? Love that song and album though. We used to do "Powersurge" live when we first formed and it was a lot of fun.

Read the lyrics TOB. It speaks about the coming of Christ, it seems.

Realm - Slay The Oppressor

Good one! I think it would fit them perfect.

That would be very cool!

Overkill - In Union We Stand

Metal Church - Line of Death

Great songs there.

Three I think would be cool (and DOUBT they have been done):

Artillery - Beneath The Clay (R.I.P.)
Carbide - Total Impact
Realm - Slay The Oppressor

Never heard that CARBIDE track.

The other two would be awesome for sure.

I know the VIKING one ... that album's pretty cool. Reminds me a bit of DARK ANGEL/SLAYER.

Never heard the other two. I need to get more of their albums but that LIEGE LORD stuff tends to be expensive.

Great tune, classic album. We used to cover "Wake Up Dead" a few years ago.

Checking it out now ....

Interesting! I've always liked this song ... I may have to consider this one. I already mess around with this one from time to time on guitar.

ToB here is a clip of "Your're The One"

Thanks. I checked it out before but it didn't really do much for me. Thanks anyway.

^^^^^^^
no problem

Thought it had possibilities as a building block, you know add some personal flavor to it. Covers by the numbers, especially in metal, are usually just a look at what I can do statement without any artistic merit.

Songs I've been considering covering on the next ToB album:

MANOWAR - Revelation (Death's Angel)
FATES WARNING - Kiss of Death
ANTHRAX - Aftershock
YES - Heart of the Sunrise (speed metal reinterpretation)
JUDAS PRIEST - Painkiller
REALM - Slay the Oppressor
METAL CHURCH - Badlands
FLOTSAM AND JETSAM - Doomsday for the Deceiver
SAVATAGE - City Beneath the Surface
OVERKILL - Fear His Name
HELSTAR - The King is Dead
SANCTUARY - Battle Angels
DREAM THEATER - Afterlife (make it thrashier)
etc. etc. etc.

I agree. I think we can modify another song to a degree and put our own stamp on it though and I think we have to a certain extent before.

Yes please!

How about a covers album?

how about Agent Steel - Rager?

I think one of those would suit you...

I've been thinking about how to handle those two. Needless to say, they would have to be altered (and the YES one pretty much reworked all-around).

While that would be a lot of fun I am not sure an underground band like us should do that. We'd have to pay the royalties for all those tunes and we might not break even on that. Maybe one day though.

Cool song! Saw em do that one live with Bruce on vox. I usually favor "Mad Locust Rising" when it comes to AGENT STEEL covers.

Those are both great songs but may have a lower potential for rearrangement ... can't think of too many things I would want to change on those. I kinda like covering bands no one else has done too and I don't think anyone has done a HELSTAR cover to date.

I love Agent Steel, but honestly, when Bruce sings the old songs, he sounds like a really washed up singer. I prefer new Agent Steel anyway.

What about something by Candlemass?

I think Bruce is really good at times and has his own moments of awesomeness, like Cyriis.

I kicked around the idea of doing "Sarithan" by CANDLEMASS. Love that band! I think I could ape Messiah's style pretty well if I tried.
