Pantera, “Cat Scratch Fever”

Overkill, covering The Subhuman’s “Fuck You!!!”

More people probably know this song because of Overkill’s version.

What would a rash of metal bands doing covers if we didn’t have the one that took metal to the top of the charts? Quiet Riot covering Slade’s “Cum On Feel the Noize”

I don’t know what to say…. I mean, Twisted Sister covering The Shangri-Las “Leader of the Pack” it’s not a bad cover in and of itself… but well, I guess just don’t take it too seriously and enjoy it. 🙂

Led Zeppelin’s “Immigrant Song” as done by the mighty Dark Angel

Deep Purple’s “Highway Star” as covered by Metal Church

And here’s Mötley Crüe’s version of “Anarchy in the UK”

What would a rash of metal covers be without a cover (or two) of the Sex Pistol’s “Anarchy in the UK”?

Here’s Megadeth’s version:

Judas Priest covering Joan Baez’s “Diamonds and Rust”.

I actually like Priest’s version better than Joan’s original, and I like this acoustic “power ballad” version best of all the ways they’ve performed it.

Scorpions covering The Who’s “Can’t Explain”
