*waits for cries of "SACRILEGEEEEE"

It's not bad, I like that they didn't stay very literal to it and did their take on it instead.

I was expecting total shit, but this is actually really nice until it gets to the core-ish parts.

This band should drop the core aspects and experiment with the post metal genre instead.

The original is my favourite ATDI song, but this is pretty damn solid.

Fail to the millionth degree. I'm sure every member of this dead band frowns on this cover. Music is going downhill.

I hated the screams of beware, they were terrible compared to the orignal. other than that, it wasn't too bad. I mean, if you're gay.

This just sounds awkward when ATDI doesn't do it. I'll take this all day though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBUtkPrANRs

I liked the idea of not just playing the song as is and actually experimenting with it, but I didn't really care for this. Love the original song though.

This cover lost all of the intensity and anticipation building of the original.
But this band has the potential in regards to writing good songs.

Jesse will always be one of my favorite vocalists
I liked it, it's different, but I've heard covers FAR worse.

I was not a fan of that. How such a heavy version of that song could have so little energy is a little bit confusing to me.

At least they didn't even try to sound like ATD-I. It was alright for what it was, which is a metal band covering Omar and Cedric so whatever.

I don't like the vocals.

Until the bass break, I would have been entirely unaware I was listening to a cover though, which definitely works in their favor.
It's more of a reinvention of the song than a cover, I just didn't really like it.

Dude just because they weren't playing post-hardcore doesn't mean it had to sound so flat. Post-metal can be energetic too, it's all about building up the tension, but this was just meh.

I'm not going to compare the versions because there's no way it could compare to the original, in my opinion. It's not bad though, I expected worse.
