Self explanatory. Favorite covers by metal bands of both metal and nonmetal songs. Had been wanting to do this for a while.

Alphabetical order by band. No limit to how many covers per band, as some bands (Thou, The Meads Of Asphodel, etc) really seem to have a talent for pumping out a lot of great covers.

1. Blut Aus Nord - Mighty Trust Krusher (Godflesh cover)

2. Candlemass - Don't Fear The Reaper (Blue Oyster Cult cover)

3. Church Of Misery - Cities On Flame With Rock And Roll (Blue Oyster Cult cover)

To build up the hype to the upcoming album by Lord (about time you lazy bunch... yeah I know I know, they released a lot of new stuff and re-recordings and other stuff but whatever) I did some careful listen to the earlier works of Tim and his mates. All the albums are real crackers and listen to all of them in order is a great way to improve your working day. Here it goes!

1. Dungeon - The Final Chapter

2. Lord - Digital Lies

3. Lord - Set in Stone

4. Dungeon - One Step Beyond

5. Lord - Ascendence

Before we start a few things
I Rule: Up The Irons!
II Rule: A Perfect cover will get a special mark " 🤘 " and then comes my pure subjective view that will always be different from yours. album with \m/ vs album without \m/ but a little bit higher = still both amazing ! i can not choose T_T don't push me! i can feel it it'll be too pity T_T
III Rule: Black Sabbath Effect(Positive side) - When you look from afar on the cover of the album and it seems incredibly classy,gorgeous and cool, but when you try to see what's happening there, only one thing comes to mind "WHAT THE F...?"
IV Rule: Rules for fools stop reading them! and let's rock
Large Version of Bruce's middle finger for real freaks https://i.pinimg.com/originals/bf/d9/5a/bfd95ab8cd25909c0f3c18db6f71ab86.jpg

I'll pick one band. Listen to their entire discography. Then give that band an overall average rating based on their studio releases.

This is clearly for my own amusement for metal music has been one of my passions since '96.

More bands will be added. The band with more albums out ranks if the rating is the same as another.

1. Vektor - 3 albums

One of the hardest working bands in all of metal with one of the most extensive catalogues. Peavy has really been busy throughout his career and luckily most of the time he has surrounded himself without other great musicans that have helped Rage becoming one of the most reliable bands still around.

1. Rage - The Missing Link

2. Rage - Soundchaser
