Eh, the typical Kerrang favorites yet again (I'm looking at you, Trivium/Machine Head/A7X). Why don't they get some unique bands to do these kind of things.
On a positive note, Metallica doing a cover is kinda cool, and Coheed & Cambria covering The Trooper will be brilliant.

Great, a bunch of D-Level bands playing an amazing band's songs. This is like going to a Jersey Shore bar and seeing a bad cover band.

Much better than seeing Ozzy for the umpteenth time. I've seen Maiden 4 times live. Never been let down by them. I hope Machinehead does an awesome cover... They did a great cover of Battery on the Metallica tribute. Also I wonder what Devildriver's cover will sound like. And it's kind of cool they got Metallica to do a cover. |

I'm willing to bet that Metallica version will not be exclusive for long, it'll probably end up as the Japanese bonus track on their new album. And the very fact that Madina Lake are going to rape "Caught Somewhere In Time", chills my very bones. The others seem ok, Trivium did a great job with Master Of Puppets on the last Kerrang! CD, in fact it was the only good song on it, so this should be good. Black Tide's version is usually played live so it's not that interesting. Dream Theater's choice is excellent. Gallows choice is also excellent. Fightstar can just  off. Machine Head are probably gonna ruin the song by screaming it. Devildriver, well i don't know, do they scream? I hate to sound like some 11 year old when i say i don't like screaming in music, but in this instance it is just not plausible as Maiden are known for good vocalists and still are a breath of fresh air in a world of metal where people can't sing. Reason i'm saying this is because on the Metallica remastered CD, a large proportion of the bands screamed, which made it awful. Thankfully, Trivium didn't. I would have certainly liked to see Korn's studio version of One finally released on this compilation. |

Ugh, I'm glad Korn arn't on this, the only band I can honestly say I hate along with Atreyu.
I'll just wait until I hear it before I pass judgment, I just hate the love affair Kerrang has with Trivium/A7X/Machine Head. They could've done the exact same idea with lesser known bands and made a more interesting cover CD, but instead its 50% soft-pop-rock (Fightstar, Madina Lake) and 50% what Kerrang think is 'heavy metal' (Triv, MH, A7X).
Like I've said though, I'll wait till it comes out. I'm disappointed with the bands chosen, but oh well, its Kerrang, you have to expect mediocre from them.

Black Tide are pretty good considering their age.

It's going to be hit or miss. The Trivium, Machine head, and Sign's covers I will listen to.

Black Tide are pretty good considering their age. I would like Black Tide if they would write all their own god damn music. I bought one of their cd's to see what they sounded like. They sound good but I was reading the little booklet thing and they didnt even write most of the songs on that cd. |
