ningun otro grupo que quiera tocar el tipo de genero de apocalyptica pegaria tan rapido que como ellos ya que ellos y claro los mejores cover aunque no cantados son de apocalyptica
To all of y'all saying why didn't metallica play it live it's mainly because from the black album and before they had atleast one instrumental in the maybe with a few words so they played as a solo
to think about it there are a few songs that havnt fully been played live, but samples, such as to live is to die, we got lucky in 06 when orion was finally played all the way through, but maybe one day my friend of misery and to live is to die will get played
cover isn't a version.. it's a tribute.. stop with the version.. you all talk about it like it seems it's cover from a another band and metallica and apocalyptica just made a cover of it.. metallica made.. and apocalyptica just made a tribute.. but the orginal is alot better.. the feeling of the lyric and james voice... and the beautyful bass sound to it.. with touchness guitar playing.. and the solo in it :) it's a great tribute :D
it's kind of amazing to me that metallica's songs transiton so well with other genres,i guess heavy metal really is the bastards child of opera and classical to some degree,or so i've heard?
Other pop genres can be transcribed into other instruments, as well. A lot of "synth pop" is covered on acoustic guitars (and it mostly sounds better), classical is transcribed into metal or techno or samba, country into rock or synth pop... that's just how it is, it doesn't really speak for the genre that other instruments can play it.
Aside from that, Apocalyptica play the same song on CELLOS, but the genre is still the same as Metallica's.
... "bastard child" of classical before any other rock genre? You could play Peter Gabriel on cellos just as well... Pink Floyd or Queen have lots of melodies, and more advanced "classical" chord progressions as well.
I must say I love this cover more than the original Metallica. Of course, its cover, there are no words etc. etc., but for me with the cellos it is more emotional and beautiful and Im really touched by it, especially with the middle part.
Don't think others would have said it better myself. Its how the feel of the song is. Originals aren't always the best. Take Planet Caravan by Black Sabbath for example. Pantera did a better job on the song and not only with Philips vocals (As the feel was like Ozzy was on drugs) but Dimebag's guitar work and how smooth it went with the way they covered it. I found 311's cover of Led Zeppelin's D'yer Mak'er to the same effect. Crush 40 has done the same with many Sonic game songs.
you know here in mexico its dificult to get the singles and stuff you can only get albums but not hot stuff....... i knew thesingle existed but i didnt know it contained new songs besides hope
