Best news title.

oh my god...

Yup for once I don't mind the title either haha

Title is accurate.

Haha, that title. Why every song on this album has been covered to even make this album possible is beyond me.

Lonely the Brave are cool, rest meh

Kerrang actually advertises 5 seconds of summer? Oh god. Glad I stopped reading this 5 years ago

Dude, this is like a crime against humanity , american idiot was a great album and it will be shame that most of these twats butcher every single song of that record

can we please stop it with these "clever" titles

Should make these titles a bannable offense.

This looks like it will be a special kind of awful

Took me a moment to get the title, and then the pain set in.
Either way, American Idiot was an important album for me - and jeez, what a horrific selection of groups. The fact that 5 Seconds of Summer would even count as a band to be on Kerrang! shows the demographic they're aiming for nowadays.

Wait, Kerrang! is still around? Now I know why I stopped to take them as serious "UK-based rock" long time ago...

The heading is true.

The heading is true. [2]

Would only listen to this if I was paid to.

The Defiled are good and sometimes do good covers. Their rendition of Metallica's The Unforgiven was pretty sweet. I don't care for the rest.

hahahahahahahahahaahahaha

rise to remain are good though

[3] Haven't heard of half these bands but the other half are pretty wretched, and I was never that crazy about AI, but covering it, and with these bands, sounds like the most unnecessary and laughable idea in music I've heard in quite a while

can we please stop it with these "clever" titles

or nothing, obviously. it's just a really forced and tacky clickbait-esque trend and i'd rather just have a title that summarises the article. y'know, like it's supposed to.

this title totally summarizes the article what are you saying

Although I agree for the others, I find that this one summarizes the article perfectly

What a joke.

Eh tbh I prefer the traditional, "boring" ones because I know what I'm getting into and ignore the ones I know I'm not interested in

you done fucked up now Kerrang

you done fucked up

all covered by your favorite bands, such as Falling In Reverse, Escape The Fate and 5 Seconds Of Summer!

Also featuring hard rock gods You Me At Six!

Just as bad as the originals

Why are The Swellers on there

Agree is Scream. When used cleverly and fittingly the titles work.

this just happened with blink 182 but with artists people wouldn't cringe at.

well this just looks awful

cant be any worse than the original can it ?

Quite possibly worse with these bands

@Minushuman24

"well this just SOUNDS awful"

Fixed that for ya.

Would rather something with a bit of thought put into it than the usual "[band] release video" header

Why would they do this? Why would anyone ever do this?

kerrang has only ever existed to fellate green day at every opportunity

I wanna hear the State Champs cover. That might actually be good.

I swear these fucking news article titles are starting to get my blood boiling

^^^[3]

I want my boring-but-informative titles back ):

I swear you guys are ex-MCR too cuz you're such killjoys

As if the first album didn't suck enough

Good title, fits the article. With that said, who in the hell thought this was a good idea?

i think it does cause you have to be dumb as fuck to put this together

Can't wait to hear Ronnie Radke rap the words to She's a Rebel!!!

These kind of article titles make me want to kill myself

this is news???

What doesn't classify as news these days demi

Why THIS album?

Nearly 10 years since its release

Meh, I'll DL it just for laughs.

Why download it when it's all up on youtube already

"8. She’s A Rebel – Falling In Reverse"

FUCK YOU

at least the title is accurate

A breakdown in She's a Rebel.....wow

And he pronounces every word ending in "tion" like Tom DeLonge, ogod this is terrible.

"all covered by your favorite bands, such as Falling In Reverse, Escape The Fate and 5 Seconds Of Summer!"

okay I lol'd

Man, the first cover sucked dong. It's so baaaaad. Can't wait to hear Ronnie spit his game, mad line bro hoh.

Disappointed in The Defiled's cover. They're normally better than that. Rise To Remain rather predictably sticking way too close to the original.

i feel physically sick

this is gonna suck

Holy shit this crappy boysband's cover of American Idiot is even worse than the original... Did we seriously need two One Direction s?

The title is actually pretty clever even. I m kinda interested inn the frank iero track though

the state champs cover was pretty cool.

As much as I like some of these bands, bowling for soup were the only ones who did a good job.

this just happened with blink 182 but with artists people wouldn't cringe at.

Lol blink 182

didnt think they could make "wake me up when september ends" any worse but lo and behold

dude whatsername is the WORST, they turned the best green day ballad into a stupid pop punk song

The dookie bonus covers are good, can't really say the same for the cover album itself. FIR's track made me chuckle though when They made fun of themselves.

If there's one thing you can credit The Defiled with, it's that unlike many bands who just do a straight up copy, they always try to mix things up and add their own unique spin on a song when they cover it. In cases like "The Unforgiven" by Metallica, it pays off really well. In this case it didn't. Still at least they try.

I would like to state here that Kerrang! are in no way an accurate reflection of most of the UK, and that they are making me ashamed to be English right now.

I think Kerrang are just trying to do their job. There are plenty of bands that are in the same spectrum as 5 seconds of summer like you me at six, All time low, Forever the sickest kids, bands that are heavily pop based but are pretty much "accepted" by Kerrang audiences. So the only reason we all assume we must hate this band is because of their following and association with One direction.

Kerrang are just trying to make other bands they like sell also. Now lots teeny bopper guys/gals are going to buy Kerrang but i just hope that kerrang evolves them and that kerrang doesn't change to suit these new fangirl audiences but so far this is going to be a good thing rock music has a chance of taking over the airwaves. We won't let these annoying fans of 5 seconds of summer take over the scene, the scene will change them for the better.

This is a good exciting thing. Be open minded and accepting for once.
