Yeah, I'm liking it! I figured Joey would nail the vocals (which he did), but also nice to see how they layered in the heavy guitars. Just the right amount I think, and the leads worked well too :rock:
 
I dig Anthrax but just didn't see the point in such a straight cover of this song. Charlie threw in some fills that were all him and pretty cool but the guitars, apart from being more saturated don't really stray from the original. I kept waiting for a heavier rhythm take on a section or something that would make it standout but nothing. Sure they played it well but I'll take the original any day over this.
 
:rock:

If I hear this song played from now on I'd rather hear this version because they stick to the exact melody & structure, but the guitar rhythm tone & leads are cooler!

The insane amounts of auto-tune or pitch correct in the acapella intro is extremely grating to say the least.

Now that Gwar is how a metal band should cover that song. Awesome.
