Explain Gimme Shelter then? Covers are ace when they're done right, and CoF's takes on Hell Awaits and that Maiden number are definitely done right. So I was mildly (to put it mildly) disappointed with their, imho, totally wank version of NTTC. I'm still to hear a decent cover of a Sisters track.
To slightly move away from NTTC for 2 seconds. Best Sisters cover for me was the band that covered Floorshow on one of those Sisters Tribute CD's. Can't remember their name. Same CD that had Darkside Cowboys do F&L&A thrash metal style.
Headtrip INC. did Floorshow on A Mercyful Tribute to The Sisters.

Don't know about DSC and thrash metal though... :roll:

Yep, that's it. Bloody great version as far as I'm concerned.

Dani (COF's singer) says on their website that the Tempation cover "started off as a bit of a joke." You don't say Dani. Stupid little dwarf. :roll:

I have the same question (and the same reason to ask it).

Dan Swanös take on Lucretia My Reflection you mean? That one is really good.
And Bay Laurel do a great version of Poison Door!

A Mercyful Tribute is for sure the best tribute album in my opinion.
:wink:

Thanks for enjoying our cover of Floorshow! It was years ago, but we're genuinly glad to get some feedback from you guys. We did much hard work that never really surfaced. You can read about Headtrip Inc at www.myspace.com/headtripinc and listen to some of our other songs. Thanks!

Please listen to the song 24 Hours just posted here on MySpace. It's an instrumental piece -- quite epic -- composed mainly by Jesper Granqvist.

24 Hours was produced and mixed in 1997 by Jocke Täck in the common music playground and rehearsal area called Dundret in Malmoe (it used to be located at the Kajen 305 quarters in the old industrial harbour, but these days the building is hosting a student administration center). To Headtrip's mild surprise the base of the recording was done on a huge 8-channel tape recorder, but Jocke the engineer assured us that the pleasant and warm sound quality of old 8-channel stock tape would prevail. In the end, we agreed.
He's right you know! :D 8)

Sod the album its on, its rubbish, go buy Dusk & Her Embrace for some real Filth!!! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
Oooh yeah, totally agree.

Cradle didn't made the best of this song but... Why not...

This song is what got me into TSOM in the first place too just like mumbles. If it was not for this cover I would have never heard of Andrew. I think the song rocks by both bands. I know COF is not for everyone but I love it.
