What didn't you like about it? The heaviness? Gary's vocals?

Gary's vocals blew it for me.

That's cool... i'm gonna let this die now.

Well, I don't like Tourniquet very much in the first place.

Last night we crashed our way through "Iron Fist" by Motorhead. What a blast! I think that one will be a keeper. Great song and fun to play. We may even start playing that song live in the coming months.

Trog has suggested Ted Nugent - Paralyzed. Not a bad suggestion.

Another great suggestion was Twisted Sister - Sin After Sin. That's also a great suggestion.

One other suggestion was "American Metal" by Lizzy Borden. Nice!

You know, I was thinking about this thread while driving a couple weeks ago and blasting my ipod. Not sure what made me think of it but I just remembered Bloodgood - Black Snake and thought, that would make a good Ultimatum song. Vocally I think it would lend itself to your courser death style and I would KILL to hear Robert re-invent that song on guitar!.

That would be a great song to cover, but Mortification covered it on their Live Planaterium CD. I think we would have to pick a different Bloodgood song if we were to cover them.

I've said it before and I'll say it again; "Human Vulture" by Armored Saint!

An old classic Mort song wouldn't be a bad idea either.

Head Banging Man by Grave Digger

It's kinda funny you say that because that was my whole point with that Trouble/Tempter cover someone wanted you to do. Tourniquet covered that first as well but some think it's not weird to redo it again regardless.

Someone emailed me and suggested doing "It's The Beat" by Deliverance with myself doing both the clean and death/thrash vocal parts. That actually would be cool.

Other cool suggestions:
Celtic Frost - The Heart Beneath
Betrayal - Prophets of Ba

I think would be very interesting (and different) to cover "Crystal Mountain" by Death..

I'd like to see at least one song be kind of funny or silly. Don't Call Me Dude from Scatterbrain comes to mind.

Or a "non-metal" pop song, thrashed up.

Well, you have the right idea, Spec, but this song in particular is so perfect in it's orignal form that trying to alter it in any way would just be ludicris.

Right-o, MG. The Safety Dance is awesome at it's most awesome-ness.

Somehow i doubt Scott will want to sing these anti faith lyrics...

Built from blind faith
Passed down from self-induced fantasy
Turn a page to justify
Conjuring power - It opens wide
On your seventh day
Is that how it's done?
Twisting your eyes to perceive
All that you want
To assume from ignorance
Inflicting wounds with your cross-turned dagger

Inside crystal mountain
Evil takes its form
Inside crystal mountain
Commandments are reborn

All the traps are set to confine
All who get in the way of the divine
In sight and in mind of the hypocrite
A slave to the curse forever confined

Shatter the myth
Don't cut yourself
On your words against dreams made of steel
Stronger than any faith
That inflicts pain and fear
Is that how it's done?
Twisting your eyes to perceive all that you want
To assume from ignorance
Inflicting wounds with your cross-turned dagger

Inside crystal mountain
Evil takes its form
Inside crystal mountain
Commandments are reborn

Sheesh... now I'm gonna have that damn "Safety Dance" song stuck in my head. Thanks guys!

Don't blame us, blame "Guest".

CURSE YOU GUEST!!

Maybe some Iron Maiden. It would be cool seeing Scott try to sing like Bruce.

It wasn't the Bruce version, but they've already covered Maiden. "Wrathchild" is on Into the Pit
