Hallowed Be Thy Name - Machine Head (cover)

[DeathMetalSavior]

He forgot the second Running loooooowwwwww. Just wanted to point that out.

[Videostar1another1fa]

In my opinion this si a good cover.

[6metall6maniac6]

Rob sorta sounds sorta like bruce! its fucking sick \m/

[agentcamo]

I bet everyone was think Run to the hills... when he said "Off of Number of the Beast"

[roydon0526]

its ok

[GasMaskNaziZombie]

Best Maiden cover IMO!

Not a real big machine head fan...Haven't looked much into them,But I do know they're good. Any help with good suggestions?

[yeahlasley]

@GasMaskNaziZombie The Blackening is by their best album for sure so listen to some songs off that album because its amazing. If you like the whole rap/metal thing listen to there albums Super Charger and Burning Red. Oh they have another good album before the Blackening, i just cant remember what its called, but they have a song called Imperium off that album thats worth checking out.

[gryffonization]

not bad! still like the original better though ;P

I'm not the biggest fan of machine head, but his voice actually fit the songs pretty well. the audience singing is annoying though -_-

[ironhockeymaiden]

really good job machine bros!

[nigeltheunholy]

i love it when bands cover iron maiden, there is nothing better than iron maiden.

[ilikepork247]

@nigeltheunholy i want to thumb you up 2000x but i cant =C

[hodges318]

anyone know where to get the mp3 of this?

[TheBadgerslayer]

@hodges318

Its on the special editions of "the blackening"

[Airlord3670]

The best cover version I've heard so far (for the record, COFs was the worse) but I still think that the original has the edge but it was an amazing cover and tribute.

[MetallicaSingh]

UP THE IRONS FROM THE CALIFORNIA BAY AREA!! If you're a Maiden fan, check out my video "If Iron Maiden Was a Thrash Band!" --- I think you'll enjoy it: feel free to rate, comment, and share!

[rubntizzug]

[FeatherClint]

[lukphonp]

[Israfel93]

That was so epic and beautiful it made me cry :´)

[jameswilliamstafford]

[dellabona69]

i was there, it was a fucking awesome day, machine head fucking rocks

[Drakonic94]

it fucking rocks, i've never eard machine head before, but now I'm sure that I've to looking for something

[joelioz]

buy machine heads album the blackening its easily metal album of the decade even james hetfield of metallica thinks so..

[rockthehiddenlotus]

@joelioz I guess you've never heard of Between The Buried And Me - Colors

[DecoM1N3RV4]

This music is the masterpiece of Iron Maiden. This version was very cool!

[darkdudironaji]

the harmonies at 2:00 were a little off. I like this one more than COF. but it has nothing to do with the overall sound of the music. I can't get past the screaming in COF's version to listen to it lol

[Croketas]

You metalheads really suck, you just can't enjoy anything outside your favourite band. It's just so sad when a COF fan talks shit about Machine Head and viceversa... And then you think you know about music

[Premdus]

Shut the fuck up all !!!

MH rules

[Nato1196]

iron maiden is the besy cause it original

but machine head kills cof and iced earth

[frenkiebeats]

you like cradle of filth and you dare to talk bad about machine head. little vampire fagget. fuck off

[blackrainbowgema]

fucking awesome cover !!

[morganix007]

I prefer COF Cover and Iced Earth cover too Fuck this damn crap band. It sucks like u fucking fans!!!

[rainmakerdud]

dude u like cradfle of shit, speaks for itself, no need for further comments...

[morganix007]

Dude u like machine gay!!! Fuck u stupid asshole!!! Stupid american nu metal. Fucking Boring

[FearOfCircles]

...Nigger

[xmanbearpigx14]

beat me to it

[faewarg]

yes COF much better than retarded machine head!!! what kind of name is that machine head, like motorhead but the difference is that motorhead is actually good.

any way machine head sucks at this song COF was better and that's that!!!

[lt53666]

Shut up shitHEAD!

[faewarg]

and u are gonna make me shut up?

pff go suck on a turd-ball and drink milk!!!

[Sorrowisyourdemon]

@faewarg I do believe they took their name from the Deep Purple album..

[faewarg]

@Sorrowisyourdemon i really dont know and i dont want to know coz bands like machinehead dont interest me... just saw that they did this song and ruined it...

[Buff180]

Nice

[RECDEMON25]

(sic)

____

i know horrible underline lol

[DrBuzz666]

It's just a spur of the moment jam during a show.

That's called putting on a good live show & of course it wont sound perfect, the instruments & PA are set up for their own stuff.

[MicahtheMastodon]

Great cover, weird to hear it tuned down so far, but played well!

[coua78]

all covers sucks, original also sucks too slow, best version ever live (live after death or flight 666)

[faewarg]

this sucks, cradle of filth did this song the best. iron maiden good job a nice song but cradle did it better :P

[Porketz]

lol, the craddle of flilth version sucks all the way...from the voice to the symphonic arrangements...prolly dimmu borgir would get a nice symphonic view of this song.

[liquidlink6]

cradle of filth sucked at it

[bobotheclown7]

cradle sucks

[faewarg]

u suck

[Abestries]

Cradle have awful vocals man, i dont understand how people like them.

[faewarg]

i d0nt understand h0w ppl can like this... s0 just stick 2 y0ur 0wn music and like it and be happy...

[Abestries]

Excellent Idea.

[gtar6661]

learn to fucking type, dickwad

[faewarg]

ok i learn to fucking type and u learn how to suck my dick okay? how's that? k.

[morganix007]

fuck u cunt

[alexdasd4]

bad sound...can't hear the solos and the intro...

[thedemonette666]

UP THE IRONS!!

Bruce is better though. so is dave, adrian, steve, adn nicko, or clive if you prefer

[MrEddiethehead]

when i went 2 see metallica they were opening up for metallica and they played this

[LPcustom76]

did you hear the crowd's attempt to clap along in the beginning? lol.. to bad a giant hand couldn't have "clapped" their collective face!

[MrMrbandido]

i liked this cover. the double bass drum during the riff was cool. but i would stick with maiden on this. cause no one has or will ever do it like them

[Mercanare]

this cover is really not that bad there are defiently worse covers on that album, if you want to hear them listen to Caught Somewhere in Time or Brave New World

[EddieSix66]

metalhead tried and did pretty good but ironamdien made it so theyre better with it.

[match360]

They tried.....not

[sjukman8888]

When MH came to The Globe in stockholm to play as a sideband to metallica they played this song, and beleive me MH is GOOD! they entertained the public like masters!!! METAL UP YOUR ASS, UP THE IRONS, GO MH!

[MeAmie94]

fuck mh, only maiden can do this!

[Phelanify]

maiden kicked their asses

[ozzy4life32]

well considering they MADE the song and are legends of Metal...their obviously gunna beat Machinehead...even though Machinehead is AMAZING!

[fixer179]

Is this the one with the Brown and white video?

or is that a different song?

please tell me?

[Scudsy101]

I think the video is for Now I Lay Thee Down,that song has an awesome riff!

[kiler550]

not bad, but...

[vgrzen34]

not bad but maiden pwns this version

[StorkReaver]

totally agree

[Thunderbolt1234]

the bass is to loud and the guitar isn't loud enough :S

[SIMPSONSDUffman]

Its Just the way maiden plays very often

[ironmaidenisgod]

Iron Maiden = Gods

[aerb11]

no dude this version kinda sucks...

[Simplyblackz]

I like this version more than the original ...

[walkingdisasterzone]

I think that Dream Theater did a great cover of this song, and this doesn't even compare to the original.

[moreplox123]

machine head will never be better then maiden

[Pyro5139]

well just think, its better then the Run to the Hills cover by Sign

[itwiztid]

SUCKS MY DOGS BALLS!!!

Cradle Of Filth is WAAAAAAAAYYY better these American fucks should kill themselves

[zsk8ter]

fuck u fagget cof did a horrible cover of this song

[moreplox123]

no one can cover maiden cuz the singing is such a big part and no one can sing like bruce

[000andres]

NOTHING more can be said

[sephsnake]

@ moreplox123:

A cover consists on that...you can change the style of the song you're covering, that's the point.

At least MH had the balls to play it live. It's fair enough if you don't like it, but they deserve the credit of entertaining the crowd.

[panos7ftw]

this cover sux badly :S

[ratmforthewin]

cradle of filths version of this song kicks ass, but machine head is an awesome band :D

[AlbanianThrash]

yea i have to admit. cradle of filth isnt too good of a band but their hallowed cover is amazing

[WhtPwrhtnz666]

stfu nigger

[supmayne1]

ouch such an intelligent comment

[iluv2laugh978]

And yours was?

Machine Head own, far more than Iron Maiden, they are ten times more intense, more skilled and overall just better.

[matrixmetroid]

except for the fact that they put metalcore in the new album

[iluv2laugh978]

Except they really didn't.

[matrixmetroid]

it wasnt full blown, just some elements

[supmayne1]

You must be around the age of 14 to think that

You dont even know what previous band the members were in in Machine Head

Plus Bruce Dickinson has a 4 octave vocal range which is 100% skill the singer in machine head doesnt have skill in singing...

and Intense? Are u kidding iron maiden are the masters of intense ... A downtuned guitar doesnt equal more intense or better playing

[iluv2laugh978]

-Gasp-

A vocal range? Shocking!

In fact your sentence means nothing, if he has 100% skill that Flynn does, then it's the same. I never said that they were intense because they tuned their guitars low, if you read my comment, you'll see that nothing about guitars tuned low is mention, so you are a bit of a presumptuous dickhead.

Machine Head just have a brutal quality that IN MY OPINION Maiden just don't have. I mean, a load of Maidens songs are in a major key, which doesn't really say metal.

[demoniacman666]

machine head sucks Irons dick, UP THE IRONS \m/ if machine head is so briliant than why dont they create something even close to Iron Maiden? Irons - the gods of metal

[grimmenigma949]

first off this is a cover you jack ass... second off this is the first time they played it

i hope that clears shit up for you cause it looks like youre not fallowing the conversation

[TisPyon]

the blackening was freaking genius....i mean i love maiden too but to bash Machine Head is just dumb...

[supmayne1]

If they are so superior why would they cover an Iron Maiden song?

And why would they do music that is famous?

because they arent original

[JesusSocks]

They aren't. Maybe a small amount are. Some may sound major, but maiden use 5th which actually dont have a major or minor tonality.

[72apist]

Machine Head better than Iron Maiden? Are you deaf?

[moreplox123]

cradle of filths version is fail

[czernobog47]

go machine head

[hellsfireD31g]

of course the drummer had the easiest role in this song, guitars are mad, ups to adrian smith and dave murray

[ScrapMetalAlbany]

if you wanna hear a flawless cover that does justice to the original listen to Iced Earth's version of this...

[Chodemeister836]

Man, Iced Earth licks balls compared to Machine Head

[memphispride34]

EVERYTHING licks balls compared to Machine FUCKING Head

[majklito0o]

i don't know.. in my opinion the Cradle of Filth version is better.. but still not bad, not bad.. ;)

[mrfenderbenderman]

why does every modern metalband fuck up otherwise half decent songs with screaming?

A relatively decent cover though,

He lacks the range though,

[vinhex]

95% of the time i agree with you but in this case i think it was just his lack of range and thier attempt to breakdown....

[rkosym]

why does everyone always crying for anything ?

[lalabiteme5000]

man your a goof iron madians cover is good but its just a little bit better with danny filth screaming in it xDD

[mrfenderbenderman]

firstly iron maidens is the original,

not a cover,

and no fucking way is cradle of filths cover better,

its sounds completely unmelodic,

no emotion,

or epicness that the song oringinally had,

just another pathetic display of whats considered great in modern metal today,

its like doing a techno version of stairway,

[jjkftw]

not bad but the double bass pedal just sounded so off...hard as fuck to hear the solos too. 6/10 imo

[OchiKoti]

Think it's a very good cover. The sense of a cover isn't to make it exacly the way the original is.

Maybe the voice of Bruce is better to this song.

But every singer has got a other voice. And the voice of Rob isn't bad to this song. I really like this cover.

Nobody will touch Maiden'S version, but this voice gives a brutal taste to this song. Very nice!

[TheReggaeAmbassador]

i dont really listen to metal all that much and my friend is getting me into it and right now this song is my favorite ...... by maiden tho but geez cradle of filth ruined it for me .... this one is way better lol

[despair790]

Haha i like how the crowd is yelling with the guitar at 3:01 thru 3:17 =)

[ICHbinDERwixxer]

So fuckin great!

[riotsocietyTV]

i saw them open for metallica and he screamed it i think it sounds better actually singing

[igetblumkins]

fuckin kicked ass lol i love this band

[Labret507]

its so hard to cover maiden and succeed... but this guys fuckin made it happen.. in their own way which is cool...

[EricJohnsonisgod]

i actually like the singing on this cover especially the first verse

[libertycaps666]

itd be better if rob screamed this instead of singing it clean they should have made it a bit heavyer to in my opinion

[shredder365]

he was trying to keep the original elements. i think they did a great job putting their style into it.

[AsheRavenX]

dude if rob did nothing but scream in it they woulda made the same mistake cradle did with it the fact is the little bits of screaming com,bined with the clean singing is what makes this cover one of the bets covers out there

[Moonlight303]

yeah! im gonna fucking see them this summer! IM SO FUCKING HAPPY!

[grimmenigma949]

mayhem tore????

[Moonlight303]

no =(

here in Portugal in a fest called Alive! and in the same day will play also metallica, slipknot, lamb of god and mastodon =)

[PhantomOfTheOpera69]

THAT is a real fuckin loud bass:D

[JerryMcHat]

Cradle of Filth' s IS better. No contest. Yes, Dani Filth screams like a goblin but it still sounds fucking cool. This dude is just trying to feel like he is in Iron Maiden. Maiden's was of course awesome too. This sucks though. Pathetic...sorry Machine Head. I like you but not that much. You're just people who are good at playing like every other rock star. I'm good at playing music too. By the way I'm in a band, you may have heard of it...I'm Mike Dirnt from Green Day. New album soon guys.

[plerimest]

bad

[LeM0njui3c3]

he makes it sound so epic in the begging

HAHAHAHA

xD

[Antonio12610]

this is a KICK ASS cover. love it almost as much as the original

[lukafrostlor]

Yeap CoF has a better cover,...But still Iron Maiden is original!

[Countdown2Hangar18]

Cradle of Shit's version sucks big time dude. What a fucking disgrace that was.

[Mohmier]

cradle of filth has a better version

[jb6756]

singing isnt a good cover, instruments are good

[memphispride34]

machine FUCKING head

[imneji]

lul, i saw this on headbangers ball last night. where is that video ?

[oompaloompaman5]

Damn id never heard this song till like 10 mins ago, and i was watching headbangers ball and heard this, i looked up and saw Machine Head playing, and thought wow! i should have figured it was a cover seeing as it didnt exactly sound like something machine head would do! Anyway after hearing bothe versions i can say i think machine head did it justice and played it really well!

[onefittyone]

why is it that some of you fuckers gotta be hatin an shit it sounds good, sayin shit like that is like a stab in the back man hey atleast got it down

[SeejaySkateboarding]

i saw machine head play this song when they opened for metallica. its funny because Im a huge maiden fan and i never heard this before the concert. and now its one of my fav's. nice cover macine head!

[NIGHTMAREMITSARAS]

Iron Maiden is the best band in the world. I don't believe that another band can reach them. They own!!!!!

[Krigarar]

nice, but he can't sing this song for shit, great musician though

[esteroth12]

Oh come on guys. This guy is being sent to his death; do you really think the screaming here is out of place? I would agree it would be bad if he screamed the whole song, but the way he did it is really good. And as always, if you are going to compare to Maiden's album version, compare Machine Head's Maiden Heaven version, as usually vocalists sound much better in studio.

[snipaab]

With all that money you'd have thought he could've invested in singing lessons.

[rUdOlFsChEnKeR94]

nice version but the iron maiden version is much better!!!

[lghamelin666]

what do u think they sound like there a metal band, u emo bastard. machine head are fucking gods and if u don't think so listen to battery it's better then metallica. there GODS

[maidenwildM]

amazing crowd,awesome cover.5/5

[cooler268]

hmm filths version is a lot better imo

[rgjmce]

ha ha, how high were you when you posted this comment?

[cooler268]

lol i think i was i dont even remember writing that, i mean i like cofs but this is much better

[brookshire63]

When you cover maiden you don't change the song. The double kicks are about as much as I would call acceptable. To change anymore than that would be like saying we can do it better than maiden( which is impossible) But when cradle of filth covered it they destroyed the song in a most unmaiden way. When Machine Head plays it that are paying respects to the best band of all time.

[irishsid13]

while i see your point,i think c.o.f. put a really "evil" black metal sound to it..i read dickinson himself gave it thumbs up.unmaiden?..maybe..it kills though when dani screams MOTHERFUCKERS!!...this version is mediocre..i like heads original material...does anyone know the name of the song m/h put on the nascar compilation cd?..i can't remember that for shit.

[siimpatiko]

good attempt...

dont like the screams at 4:10 sounds like bleeding through or somethin so.. screams like it aren't with this song.

but i liked it. so 4*

[GoranDBK]

if you look at the lyrics you will see how hard is that part.

He screams so mistakes are unhearable.

[siimpatiko]

ya i know...

[howtofuckaduck]

gay cover!!

[homelesscheese]

its a good cover but im not to sure about the double bass in it. Iron maidens is better

[AllTheSmallThingsx]

Am i the only person who doesn't like this cover that much?

[rockthegorilla]

No you're not

[AllTheSmallThingsx]

thank god :)

[coosecoose14]

this cover sounds exactly like cradle of filth's cover, except no screaming....

[imademonistthingy]

dumass, it's the same song just by two different bands

[coosecoose14]

the instruments sound exactly the same, that's all i'm saying..., i mean all they did was make the guitars heavier and the drm beat faster. (just like cradle of filth)

[GoranDBK]

And singer sucks even at the beginning....

Doesnt have vibrato in his voice.

[BIGDOGa1000]

no screaming is a good thing

[goodwin7689]

absolutely best cover there is !, machine head are also the worlds best band ! 5/5 ! thumbs up!

[romanblood]

This cover is actually brilliant!

Machine Head, I love you guys again!

[KyleSme]

they played this last night at the rockstar mayhem festival.

[heyvince2211]

great cover

[gigiok2m]

Great cover!!
