This Who cover by Redemption came up on my shuffle on the way into work this morning.
They don't do much different from the original, but Holy Christ is John Bush's vocal performance powerful. The trade-off between him and Ray Alder just sends shivers.

Speaking of Leather Leone, I always loved this Chastain version of Barracuda.

Unexpected, eh? Haha.
These are the only horns I want in Slayer
Did you listen to it, though? They played them straight, no ska, no horns, no punk. Pretty funny, actually.

Yea, around the 3:08 mark. That's why I made the comment. Otherwise I can't say I'm familiar with Less Than Jake. The name rung a bell though.

Well, yeah, I guess there's that. Haha. But otherwise they went for a straight cover. Typically they are definitely a full-on ska-punk band.

Dam! Pete Townshend wrote some great music.. Excellent cover. Big difference is the guitar soloing, Pete can't touch that.
Keith Moon's drums are missed on this. John does a nice take on Daltry's vocals, Hell, He sings his ass off on this.. Great job..
I've only heard a handful of All That Remains songs, but this cover is pretty cool IMO:
Nope. That cover is awful. That is the only country song I genuinely like. I've always said it would make for a great metal song. This version is no good. Has no power.
And going back several posts, I'm a huge Less Than Jake fan and I think they can cover just about anything.
Case in point, this EP:
Some are "ska'd up" and some aren't but c'mon, we're not just talking TV show theme songs here; we're also talking about commercial jingles. I seriously think Less Than Jake is talented enough to cover pretty much anything.

I'm not much of a Manson fan these days, but I will say when he does a cover, he certainly puts his stamp on 'em. Rob too for that matter.
