Fade To Black by Apoptygma Berzerk

[Cherudex]

i'm a thrasher, but i like apogtyma too...

i don't like this cover

[DoctorSynthetic]

Fucking awesome cover!

[dd1987x]

I didn't like this song until Apoptygma Berzerk covered it..

Made me respect Metallica just a wee bit.

[MyNameIsPABL0]

Disco always sucks.

[jimgab80]

@MyNameIsPABL0 It aint disco twat, thats like saying Metallica is country, fool..

[MyNameIsPABL0]

@jimgab80 Only morons offend people with different tastes. Disco, electro, synthpop - no matter how you call it, it sucks. And yeah, Metallica recorded at least country song.

[syncopat1337]

well.... i like it more than metallica. shot me im guilty :)

[cloudeye7]

Hey, it aint TECHNO it's Synth-pop. Whole other genre.

[TheHarlingenLegend]

Sounds sound like that singer from Bullet For My Valentine.

[cloudeye7]

@TheHarlingenLegend Please don't compare Apop to Bullet For My Valentine. Ugh!

[DemoraX]

i love the chimes :D

[IhreMama]

I heard this on itunes radio

[double42]

This does sound like the techno version of " Fade To Black , and like it a lot . My sister first told me of it and said I would have to listen to the lyrics to know it's a Metallica cover version .

[bolmsp]

awesome !!!

[maskedleyend]

i liked the radical transformatin from hard rock to tekno industrial xD it is good but this version is not for me maybe for a party it could be great xDD

[vampiredude001]

i like it. its pretty good

[rascier]

uaho really cool excellent, i liked much 

[razedWrong]

im old skool, but you have to move with the times, and as long as its heavy thats the only thing that matters.

[ArchonKnight2]

I'm over 2 minutes in... Is this Fade to Black or not?? Haha.

[rutelover]

w...t...f?

[ThePs3ownsxbox]

This is way better than the original.

[treencd]

@ThePs3ownsxbox HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHAHA STFU

[highplainsjester]

@treencd hahaha agreed

[Bandanko]

Love the original and I love this one, I am still not sure the tubular bells were a good idea though...

[KUROGUY]

@Bandanko I know I've heard those bells in another Metallica song before. If you notice at the end he sings the melody from The Unforgiven ending.

[stilwel]

@KUROGUY That bell melody is the main guitar from U2's New Year's Day.

[KUROGUY]

@stilwel It sounds similar to it but it is not the same. New Years Day's melody is longer than that. Besides, why would they intentionally add a melody from a U2 song when this song is a tribute to metallica? That doesn't make sense.

[bigcountrylolz]

Metallica's best song, and the best cover of it

[scuzoid74]

Its not happy, its energetic. There is a big difference.

[braptism]

Had Apoptygma just changed the lyrics, I'm sure no one would even guess that this is a cover of Fade to Black. People are actually only listening to the sound and attitude of a song to make up their opinion if they like it or not...

[SavaPower]

ti p@p@ria einai ayth re?

Xaxaxaxa this is awful!!!!

[nicknorz]

@SavaPower kolimenos mouxlas-metalas

[SavaPower]

@nicknorz den hksera oti prepei na m'aresoyn tetoies arxidies gia na eimai super metalas...xaxaxaxa re ti psonia yparxoyn...

[MetaRidley09]

Where is Fade To Black????

[MetalCroyax]

well this is a good version of fade to black in a gay electronic way, but not that bad, the only thing that pissed me off was the almost 2 minutes intro it kinda suck

[Andre0238]

Much better than the original!

[LacrimaLuciferi]

@Andre0238 you must be mad and/or kidding me. I got respect for other genres and I believe that someone actually like it but it never was and never would be better than the original. period.

[Metalpefki]

@Andre0238 pote na perasw na sou kanw enan exorkismo?

[nik00912]

@Metalpefki  mazi s re file :P

[easyjoseph]

I was so turned on to this song did not know it was a Metallica song at first since I hate Metallica and never listen to them as I hated the whole metal movement

[Trancemaster2052]

This is probably the best electronic cover of any metal song ever recorded. Phenomenal.

[vampiredude001]

@Trancemaster2052 i totally agree!

[Trancemaster2052]

@vampiredude001 Thank you haha. It really is great. So well done. 

[luisramongonzalez]

this is an insult for metalica this is shit the make shit a big song like fade to black fuck you apogtygma

[Psycherz]

Way too happy. This song is supposed to be depressing and suicidal. But listening to this, I can only picture some techno junkie jumping around waving his arms everywhere being all happy.  Not a bad song, greatly produced, but seriously guys, this isn't Fade to Black.

[vsander09]

@Psycherz By about age 9 most people can decipher the difference between happy and fast. Not sure how a goth/industrial song filled with minor chords qualifies as "happy" but maybe that's just me.

[Psycherz]

@vsander09

:| The feel of it. It just isn't a depressing sound. Too upbeat.

[vampiredude001]

dude. this song is epic!

[NaecroLov3]

have the cd. most of the songs r more like electropop or ebm, means some older stuff but nothings rly industrial

[DragonicFiend]

@NaecroLov3

ebm and electropop/synthpop are sub-genres of the industrial genre...

[TimeWillShadow]

If there is one thing Apoptygma Berzerk does well, (besides disappointing his fan base) is cover songs.

[elespectro]

good point. there is nothing industrial about this. i still like it though.

[Alfonnsheik]

Pura basura......han estropeado la canción!!!!!

[betopitufo1]

No esta asi como muy bueno pero esta mejor que el de "nothing else matters"

[elfreim]

Check out the "nothing else matters" version they made... Its a tribute.... not a copy... each group makes their version of the tune as a tribute... if you want to hear the original... buy a metallica record...

And yes Apop is lightyears bette live.... to bade they changed genre... now plays electropunk or whatever they call it.... but it was fun while they lasted....

:D

[MrDanpeal]

Straight to the bin! Right now! -5 ;/

[suzoe76]

..is ja nur geil!

[WolfgangPain]

fucking godly remix, thanks for adding!

[capnquack]

It's pretty light, but apoptygma is an EBM band - industrial's closest thing to dance. It's closer to industrial over dance due to being driven by the dirty base line and gritty/static drum sound instead of the more clean sounds of the electronic drums found in dance. There's also a lot of extra 'noise' and 'industrial sounds' played over the track to give it more grit. It's subtle, but it's still EBM.

[Nashtak]

What the hell. How is that supposed to sound anything like Fade to Black. ...

[skotchiJack]

This isn't supposed to sound anything like fade to black.

It's supposed to sound like apoptygma berzerk covering metallica.

And they both sound like pure awesomeness

[darkforestzero]

when you get to about 1:30 it starts sounding like the original song...

[MrCatfishable]

Sacrilege as it may be, I think I prefer this version over Metallica's. Five stars.

[Totemhorn]

the live version totally blows this version out of the water for that matter.

[jadedrakerider]

I love the Blackest Albums if only for all the different takes on Metallica song. I can totally dance to this at a rave. I've been a Metallica fan for over a decade, and this is just so cool.

I never would have conceived on this remix, it's so different!

[brightsiides]

i listen to metallica AND apop and 've seen both live already, but... i don't really like this version of this song.

[Gothica059]

I am a die-hard metallica fan and this version is fucking amazing. a mix of metallica and industrial, who would of thought it works so fuckin well!!

deffo downloadin this album

[TheClownPeople]

I'm not sure how people can say this sucks... I don't like it, I'd rather listen to Metallica version, this version isn't for me. Doesn't mean it sucks....

[LUXXXable]

@TheClownPeople FADE TO FAIL.

[DemoraX]

totally diffrent with the industrial spark.

sounds great though :)

[DeathByMetal08]

Meh, coming from a big Metallica fan I gotta say its not bad.

[Sharkis12]

Yeah, Metallists says that industrial music sucks, but this isn´t bad, becaus is something different and interesting 5 stars for me

[jadeEhavok]

Where can I download this song/album?

Thanks

[CryogenicXsean]

Its on iTunes, or you could try air MP3.

[funsiZe20]

That was noting relating to the original. Frankly, it was bad.

[KozmikKiller]

It sounds nothing like the original, but it's still pretty badass.

[psyshock918]

interesting?

[classicalsteve48]

i love how "metalica" is so tiny

[SirWilliamAlmasy]

Works better on them than on Metallica, IMO.

[SerpentRaptor]

Could I have an mp3 of this please? Pm me, thanks.

[brandoncolejohnson]

wow this is a good club mix

[omgahamsandwich]

bought this album in the early 2000's been a long time since I listened to this cd.

[peteg35]

i think they pull this off really well live

[fedboy]

geniaal
