I understand that metal is the music of the gods,
No it isn't. IF there is a God, or Gods multiple, I'm sure he has more important things to worry about than music. And even if they did, I think music of the God's would be orchestral.
So here's my challenge to you. Pick a song and I'm pretty sure I can find the better metal version!
I'm pretty sure you can't. Their might be a few songs that are bad, and have a better metal cover, but other than that, I doubt it. I'm pretty sure you couldn't find a version of the music I listen to that's better than the original. Sure, you might prefer it, but if you would get of your high horse, maybe you'll realise that metal isn't the best genre. You'll find out that no such thing exists.

Everything sounds better when it's metal because you're young and angsty. You'll grow out of it one day, don't worry. :p
i hate it when someones argument is that the person the disagree with is young...well actually its pretty funny...but yeah

Oh to be young and hopeless again.

I can imagine all the metal heads holding the horns in the air and playing with themselves over a picture of Dragonforce while blasting those damn people who oppose their precious music.

Don't worry young uns... you'll soon learn that going outside looking like a cross between a transvestite and a bat isn't very clever...or comfortable.

*Turns on MIA- Paper Planes*
to be fair thats increadebly narrow minded and childish thing to say, why cant people dress the way they like, why is it up to you that they look 'like a cross between a transvestite and a bat' perhaps you look like an idiot to many others, but its fine for you to look like a prat because perhaps you dont and thats just ignorent fucktards talking shit they dont know or understand.

be a bit more understanding of other people and there culture (yes metal is a culture) and perhaps one day you will gain a little wisdom, because its ok for people to be different from you and maybe just maybe they like it that way :)
Comment was a joke...3 of my best mates dress like that. I often tell them that they look like that.
Guess I better justify myself here.
I was once a metal fan...a big metal fan. You name it, I've heard it. However, I got sick of the bullcrap the scene seemed to pull. The high brow attitude, the lack of respect to any other music, the fact they weren't really different like they claim. Just go on a Justin Bieber song on youtube and you can see their attitude. I had this discussion with a friend and this lass he was with.
Case and point- Went to a metal night in a Fred Perry polo shirt and G- Star jeans. Got looked at like I was dirt. Some girl actually said to me 'the fuck you doing wearing a Fred Perry?'

Yes this can be applied to any and every group, interest etc.

No offence meant by the comment regarding bats. I encourage individuality. Just not individuality to fit into a social group.

OT- I'm still waiting for someone to show me how any metal song is better that MIA or the Blackout Crew.

*Puts on Devlin- Brainwashed*
Have you been to raves? Blackout crew leads me to think maybe heh.

I was the same as you, Metalhead of 7 years or so that just grew fed up of the scene and the bullshit elitism, and discovered raving. BEST vibe you'll ever get on a night out, metalheads, hippies and chavs side by side, no animosity, everyone's just there for the music and to dance.
Well I'd be lying if I said I hadn't been to the odd all-nighter...nothing like wandering home lost, cold and confused in the light of the morning sun.
god I hate the day after one of them. Hell really does descend on you!

Still waiting for someone to beat MIA...

Oh contrare, everything sounds better played by an orchestra.
THREAD ASSASSIN!

Um, yeah, this guy summed it up.

Also, I preferred the ORIGINAL "Right Round" to the Dope version. Yeah, I just went there.

To those doubting metal can make something better: versus
Actually, the Skeletons in the Closet album in general is great for this thread...

Ok, i give thee challenges three:

1.the easy one, vivaldi's four seasons
Heh, the Dark Moor cover of Vivaldi's "Winter" is actually what got me listening to Dark Moor in the first place - as you said, easy.

On Topic: As a fun little exercise, see if you can dig up a Metal cover of Michael Jackson's "Beat It" - I got a good chuckle when I first heard that, made more surprising because it was actually good.

Find me a metal version of Xanopticon - 4 Hit Points


This is probably an impossible submission.

If you can find one, even if it doesn't sound better than the original, I'll go eat a crow pie.

Ummm...hi.

Some of us don't like metal.

K,thxbai.
and sorry no offense to thos of us who dont like metal, this was more or less a thread for metal heads an shit lol
Yeah I realized how trollish I sounded after posting sorry :p
I suppose you could find a metal version of anything, but I don't know if it would be better. Adding double kick and a finger tap solo to Piano Man by Billy Joel wouldn't be a good thing in my books :)

PS - I also was going to call out the guy who above who called me "Meantally ill for not liking meatal" but it appears the rest of you found that comment to be ironically stupid too and he got put on prob. Justice!

One need only listen to CarboHydroM's video game covers (especially the moon theme from DuckTales) to appreciate the awesome power of metal.

Well. . . Obviously metal heads would think stuff sounds better as metal, so there'd be no challenge to this thread if there were only metal heads. I like a fair amount of metal but a lot it rubbish in my opinion. I hate Katy Perry but that metal version was awful, try Johnny Cash's Ring of Fire
