07.30.20 | Honourable mentions that might make a second list if one gets made:
- U2 - Beat on the Brat. It's all fine until Bono starts singing. Then it's embarrassing. (This fought tooth and nail with Drowning Pool for the #5 spot, and I may still change my mind.)
- Drowning Pool - Creeping Death. What do you do if you want to cover Metallica, but you're not a good enough guitarist? Skip over one of the best solos in heavy metal history altogether, that's what. Not as aggressively awful as everything else on this list, but c'mon...doing Creeping Death and leaving out the solo is like doing Raining Blood and leaving out the intro riff.
- Arcane Roots - Smells Like Teen Spirit. Sounded AWFUL on the first playthrough, but I have since mellowed my stance on it - UNLIKE with Frank Turner's monstrosity.

07.30.20 | only one i'm familiar with here is 5, and yes, it's bad.
I personally find cannibal corpse's cover of "zero the hero" to be pretty awful, but some really like it. |
ReturnToRock
07.30.20 | 5 should probably be 3, to be honest. But 3 is my biggest musical pet peeve of all time, so yes, being a little biased here. |

07.30.20 | Couldn't find the Green Day cover tbh, can anyone help me? I want to hear that shit show |
ReturnToRock
07.30.20 | @kalkwiese i got it wrong - the cover is actually for We Are The Champions. Still worthy of the spot though. |

07.30.20 | 3 is fun as hell. |

07.30.20 | what about the jewel cover on the new trapt album? |
JeetJeet
07.30.20 | Puddle of Muds Nirvana cover is awful |
LucretiaMyReflection
07.30.20 | Disturbed’s Sound of Silence is another horrendous tragedy |

07.30.20 | Limp Bizkit - Behind Blue Eyes needs to be on here |
Joeman82
07.30.20 | Or at least that Puddle of Mudd - About the Girl cover. That was legitimately horrendous. |
Emim
07.30.20 | For a surprisingly decent cover, Bullet for my Valentine's cover of No Easy Way Out is pretty good. |

07.30.20 | I always loved Motorhead's cover of Ozzy's "Hellraiser". |

07.30.20 | The music video's pretty hilarious too, with Lemmy playing a bit of poker with Pinhead. |
TheSonomaDude
07.30.20 | Lemmy is prob the only mortal Pinhead would ever play poker with |
riffariffic7
07.30.20 | Haha. Too true. I bet he's kickin' his ass at it as we speak. |
