Woeful cover versions Pt. 3

Trivium – For Whom The Bells Tolls
(Metallica)
Recorded long before Ember To Inferno, Matt Heafy was only around 16 years old when Trivium made a balls of “For Whom The Bell Tolls”. A mixture of terrible sound quality and possibly Heafy’s voice not having even broken yet, made this 4+ minute long cover a truly woeful one.


Stefanie Heinzmann – The Unforgiven
(Metallica)

Another Metallica one. What is it about Metallica tunes getting butchered? Does a teeny bopper German pop singer covering one of the formidable staples in Metallica’s repertoire really what we need? No, just no. Click
HERE to be horrified

Black Tide – Prowler
(Iron Maiden)
Black Tide seemingly have a wealth of support behind them, but to be honest it’s only the gimmick of their age that has garnered it. But, anyway this cover of the Maiden classic has a lot in common with their own material – bland and lacklustre.
