I think Mastodon should be the only band allowed to cover the Melvins. They did an epic job with The Bit. Oh, and I guess Fantomas too, seeing as Buzz is in that band.
this is a bad fucking cover. the drums sound so thin and weak. actually the whole thing sounds thin and weak and then the vocal are just horribly mixed. epic fail.
Wow, this really shits all over the original version with pointless added bullshit. The random dissonant melody added to the main riff and the overly-loud vocals are just awful.
Awesome, whose comparing DEP to post-hardcore and commercial screamo? bettter not be, they're a fucking worthwhile band. So is Melvins, DEP can't beat them at this, but amazing nonetheless
1. Sure this cover isn't as good as the original, but that's normal! Covers are NEVER better than the original!
2. Don't compare DEP with any of those screamo bands!
They're the complete opposite, since they actually have talent, otherwise Mastodon, Meshuggah and Mike Patton wouldn't listen to them...
I agree, the vocals are kinda hard to swallow but once you get used to them, it sounds great.... I love the Melvins and I think it's a nice cover, it's different and that's something good!
I don't understand why everyone hates this? The mixing and mastering isn't too good, but it's a great cover. I actually love everything about this cover.
Eeep. I love DEP but this didn't work for me at all. Considering the original is such a classic, a cover version of it needs to be something special or a complete re-interpretation, not a badly produced mess with wrong sounding vocals. It sounds like they had a quick go at playing it in a rehearsal room and happened to record it. Half the riffs aren't even right.
goddamn. fuck these vocals! everything else is fine. you don't have to change your voice to make you sound badass. i mean, just listen to the original.
the drums are good, but theyre just too overpowering. the guitars sound like theyre being put through a paper shredder... im not even commenting on the vocals.
even If you were my mom telling me I'm a great guy I wouldn't agree with you more. I'm all for free expression and unbounded interpretation and people covering songs as they see fit but I think this is awful. Despite it being loud it lacks that certain "thickness" that the Melvins sound has. Your comment is right on.
yeah i mean there are lots of covers of songs that are better than the origionals, but when it comes to covering anything like the melvins and turning it into this... gah i dont know...
that was fucking horrible... how dare you disrespect the Melvins by butchering this song? Dillinger is only good if Mike Patton is doing the vocals anyway
amazing cover. i think i liked it a bit better than the original. i quite liked the vocals though it seems most people here havent. i am a fan of dillinger as well as the melvins though
I quite like this cover, it's got a very different vibe, but a good cover makes a song sound like the band playing it, not the original. While it lacks the oddball heavyness of the melvins, it replaces it with some high octane precision. The vocals are personal taste, I like greg, he's a very good performer, and can do more than scream, though I can understand how purists would hate it. It's very clean and clinical.
I agree witcha on that, the instrumental part of the tune was great but the vocals really assassinated it. The Melvins were not a thrash metal band they were the hard alternative rockers that laid out the ground work for grunge. The vocals just didn't mesh up with it at all, still nice try.
dick bag dragonwix. "this sounds mainstreem..." you are a fucking embarasment to any body with a fucking brain. you fucking ignorant inscesting (you prob fuck your family) 12 year old, someone needs to cut off your head and barf down your throat, then take your ear drums and give them to a deff child, so the gift of listening isnt wasted on such a pathetic excuse for a human being. go fuck yourself.. if your still thinking of music as "mainstreem or not main, GROW UP! art is art. shit is shit.
I dont hate this....i kind of like it. But does not create the same atmosphere...i mean The Melvins version is possibly te heaviest song i've ever head along with funeralopolis by electric wizard. This version just sounds okay.
what?????? what ever happen to keeping it real?? This is awful, i'm a firm believer in some songs should never be covered and this is one of them. All the crazy little hardcore notes at the beginning. I'm sorry but DEP stickk to "hardcore"
realmofzion said he's a firm believer that some songs shouldn't be covered. I asked if he feels the same about Going Blind, considering it's off the same album as Honeybucket.
