No Jeph! Don't test my heartings! (Apocalyptica)
Schmung:
I likies Apocalyptica, I also very much like Bloc Party. I'd be greatly offended I'm sure, but I'm so bloody knackered after work that I can't find the energy to be that petty.
El Opium:
I've not cared cared about bands Jeph has griped about so far. Jam bands deserve it. I share his opinion on Bloc Party and I don't know much about Apocalyptica though it seems like everyone bases their opinion of them on the fact that they covered Metallica. I'm anticipating an attack on Wolf Eyes or some other noise type band pretty soon though.
BusterKeaton:
I was never a huge fan of Apocalyptica but there Tool covers were really great, Tho i agree with jeph metallica covers? no thank you. I do find it funny that people are getting offended becuase of the comic, Im a big fan of the bloc party, Ive read all that NME and Pitchfork and any other elitist rag has to offer. And it got me thinking about a great woody allen film called Zelig, Google it if you want to know what im talking about, Basically its about the human nature to conform. Just because someone thinks your favourite band is cliche dont take it as a personal insult.
KharBevNor:
Meh, I liked their Metallica covers. It's not like they covered any particularly crap metallica songs. Sure, they did the Black Album singles to get some sales, but their versions of 'Master of Puppets' and 'Creeping Death' in particular are rather nice.
Btw Buster, you don't actually like Apocalyptica then, the Tool covers are badly attributed p2p files.
But seriously, anyone who's only heard their metallica covers is seriously recommended to download 'Beyond Time', either of the versions of 'Path' (Path 2 with the singing is pretty sweet), 'Harmageddon' and the epic 'Deathzone'.
Robbo:
Indeed, those Tool covers will be from Anotomica/Metamorphic (The String Quartet Tribute to Tool, Vol 1/2) or Third Eye Open: String Tribute To Tool.
While the Metallica covers are fun, they difinatly come into their own more with original stuff.
