That's the same version that was on the Kiss My A$$ tribute album, right? I've heard that one but didn't care much for it. Yeah, that's one. I always thought it had a good funk vibe and I liked the 'God of Thunder' and 'Shout It Out Loud' references in it. - MetalGuy71 wrote:

Strange Ways – Megadeth
Where does this one appear?
I have it as an unreleased track from the War Chest box set. The liner notes said it was recorded for the Kiss My A$$ tribute album, but rejected. However someone here (Metal Misfit?) claims it was also included as a hidden bonus track on the Best Buy version of The System Has Failed. That's news to me. My version does not have it and while I'm not 100% certain, I'm pretty sure that's where I would have purchased my copy. Yeah, that's exactly right according to Wikipedia. Must have been recorded a while back though, as I'm almost confident that's Marty's voice at the end shouting "YEAAH, THAT WAS EXCITING!" Without Marty's influence, I couldn't see Megadeth doing a KISS cover anyway. _________________  | |

Yea, 'Strange Ways' was recorded back in '93 or '94 with the RIP line-up of Dave, Junior, Marty & Nick.

ERROR!! ERROR!! DOES NOT COMPUTE!!  I was about to mention that Death did a cover of "God of Thunder" on a Roadrunner Records compilation album years ago, but never mind, I guess. The only other one I can think of off the top of my head (that hasn't been mentioned already) is the thrash band "Panic," who did a goofy/jokey cover of "I Stole Your Love" on their EPIDEMIC album.

| Death's version is more "Thrash" than "Death" IMO.
