How... is this... Tom Waits? I can't make out the lyrics at all man, you sound like you're raping Tom. In case anyone was wondering, this is what sounds like when Tom Waits is anally raped.
... I was curious about this video thinking it would be crap because no one has truly covered a crazy song like this good... BUT... HOLY CRAP... I THOUGHT YOU GUYS WERE AMAZING!
he says he can't scream but sounds just like tom. maybe a little deeper voice. this is hilarious. it's the best cover i've seen from anybody. he should use those vocals in his own music.
@PCHDX i think you're confused, there's a band called the fall of troy with a song called tom waits, and also the artist called tom waits has a song called the fall of troy.
this is a great cover. he plays probably one of the most complex and technically complicated songs TFOT ever made, and manages to scream and practically nail every note. excellent job.
Guitar/screamer and drummer were both great. Wasn't a big fan of the bassist, seemed quite a bit off. But besides that, really great cover. One of their best songs.

not being a hater or anything but this cover isnt really that great. I give him props for playing and screaming but the screaming was shit to be honest. Alot of the terrible audio quality helps mask how bad the screams are, and the falsetto screams are actually very easy. But yeah I know Im gonna get alot of shit for this... "Dude your just jealous..." I dont wanna hear that shit me and my band cover FCPREMIX all the time and I play and sing/ scream it so don't give me shit for this.
first of all you cover FCPREMIX. you obviously are a guitar hero fag with no musical tastes. enough said your a fucking poser. second of all the guitar sounds and playing are nearly perfect to the record. third, your criticising some guy screaming into a mic. so your right, your going to get shit.
First of all thats pretty ignorant of you just to say Im a guitar hero fag just because I cover FCPREMIX. For your information I hate guitar hero and never play it. Have you looked at my fucking channel? I have every album out by them not to mention I understand how much a turn off FCP can be to any true fan. I never said I enjoy covering that song, but hey its gets the crowd to sing along. Check out my Excreations cover you wont find it very "poser" in reality. Just fuck off.
you obviously haven't read the video description, where he clearly says "i can't scream", so you deciding to tell people that he can't scream makes you look like a faggot. good job. the video isnt great quality, no, but this band have got further than you will ever get already, if you did your research.
dude how the fuck can u sing tht chorus and play the guitar simultaneously i thought only thomas could do tht.......the rest is pretty easy though but nonethe less proly the best cover of this song thts ever gona b on youtube theres actualy even a vid of tfot messin up while performin this hahaha nice job
To be honest at the time (this was about 2 years ago) I had a pretty budget set up as I was only 18 at the time so expensive gear was out of my range.
yeah I figured as much that it was like Line 6 filter modeler, but that thing's pretty pricey so I was wondering if this dude was using something different.
sorry for misscouting. i counted it at the begging when he was facing away and in the background, and assumed i was right and didnt recount. brown notes = joke.
F** that's awesome!
