[zZzMotherShipzZz]

HELL BENT HELL BENT FOR LEATHUUUUUR!!!!!

[westie1307]

the vocals suck, i could have done better!

[thejorgeman1]

Waters Dive Into The Crowd!!!

[ksrthrash]

the solo <3

[Guitardude81597]

Who 's the singer Randy rampage?

[HPLovethrash]

@Guitardude81597 Aaron Randall actually...he sang much better on Speeed's one album in 1999, never sounded too good to me when he was with Annihilator for some reason.

[pollaris18]

wow!!!!!!!!!

[IcantDiedeadenough]

wow thats not bad singing at all.

[thejigsawmurdersyou]

This is from when they were touring with priest?

[J0hannski]

This was when Annihilator was cool.

[NinjaJedi11]

he kinda ruined it whenever hed say "leather" as opposed to "letha"

[GOGMOTIS]

Is that a Fear Factory shirt the singer is wearing? oh no

[stupidguyx]

Haha, Aaron Randall is a complete wuss. But I'd still take him over Padden.

[DimmuBathory]

Fucking awesome cover!

[SLIPKNOT666MAGGOT9]

What bands on the singers t-shirt?? It looked like Fear Factory

[UmadLoL]

@SLIPKNOT666MAGGOT9 It is.

[mogy6708]

Another example of a wannabe....Aaron Randall sporting a SOANM shirt...he needs to be soundly beaten past an inch of his life haha

[Idey1994]

@mogy6708

SOANM? you'll have to help me :)

[mogy6708]

@Idey1994

Fear Factory...Soul Of A New Machine...He would be laid to waste if he ever heard it

[Idey1994]

@mogy6708

Thanks, as a fan of fear factory I probably should of known that :) . Also I'm quite surprised he has that shirt on, he doesn't exactly strike me as a FF fan. I really like this cover, the vocals let it down though, as always Jeff is great!

[Raggedyandy52k]

YEPPER DOOOOOO !!!!

[halabeloeza]

How mutch of the original band members are still in this awesome band?

[pepemordor]

@halabeloeza one, Jeff Waters

[Zulwali]

Japan...you are not worthy..

[theeducatedfool]

The vocals aren't as charismatic as they could be, but Jeff definitely nailed that solo...and has a strange Angus Young thing going on.

[runtodemhills]

Singer sounds like a pirate. "Hell bent for leathER!! YAAHHRRR!"

Lol. Good cover though.

[Ironjagg]

@runtodemhills LOL yea HAHA

[aquemeni541]

Shanananana!!!!

[Ellinopsychos]

Kick ass cover from a kick ass band! Definitively the best thrash band of the 90ies, and the last one of its kind!

[666MetaIHead]

Of course this is not like the original version, i mean no1 can sing like Rob but is still a pretty good cover imo

[willywonka19721972]

do you even know what a cover is? i mean come on they do it the way they want to do it it annihilator doing it not judas priest go watch priests' version if thats what ya want dumbfuck...

[maidenead]

the singer loses the note and his voice thins out the last time he sings the chorus.

[kjn5991]

whos is singing?

[SBassman]

aaron randall

[magnificusx]

Insanely great cover!!!!!!!!!!!! 8-)

[0rion2309]

I wonder how he got back on the stage before the next song starts

[turboneger]

On the set the world on fire album jeff played this sick, total insane amazing tap sweep arpeggio lick. in this video he just taps it...

[HorstKirkPageKian]

@turboneger I know it's a litte late for a reply ;) The studio solo is played by Neil Goldberg who played it different than Jeff.

[fenixmaker]

not even close to Priest

[megadethfans96]

is that washburn guitar

[danophile07]

no a hamer

[GuitarMasterRicky13]

got to give Jeff Waters alot of credit. without him this cover wouldn't of been nearly as good.

[shomilood]

Omg ,awesum cover,it almost sounds like the original :>

[animemonarch888]

Pretty damn good cover.

[anniafan]

That is not Mike Mangini, that is Randy Black. The bass player is Dave Davis but he was usually the rhythm guitar player: the bass player Wayne Darley could not get into Japan at the last minute.

[jbernierjr]

I feel like they are playing within their ability, a sincere and humble tribute to Priest. The band is spot on and the singer knows he can't sing like Halford, who can? This is a great cover from a pretty decent sounding band right here...this is metal! I play in bands, it's hard doing an honest cover song. You want it to be faithful, but too also be your own imagining. I bet anything Judas Priest digs this.

[schwarg]

the singer sang it like "hell bent for leathER" sounded really bad hahaha

[communistbear]

I know what you mean, it's LEATHA!

[Superapeaholic]

singer ruins ,,no edge to his voice... i remember him from the set the world on fire album

[Rikarrdo3]

bueno el cover !!!

[carlos12345666]

the tribute to the gods of rock and roll, as black metal of venom

[Usshber]

Awesome Cover!

[jossy2112]

Fear Factory shirt

[freemusicblogg]

Oh man, we want louder drums...for God's sake, Mike Mangini playing!!

[blackjiro666]

good cover :)

[Rikarrdo3]

Annihilator

[adrianogers]

hellbent for leather thats right! lmao

[Chronologo]

wow, if the singer wasn't there and the lights were out I could swear that is Judas playing, excellent cover

[powermass260]

lol

[MaestroMan999]

nah man priest is way better

annihilator's good though

[ExileCanadaMetal]

priest was good annihilator is better. they got waters haha thats enough to have a great band.

[PonceHeavy]

mu wen cover, annihilator y judas priest excelentes bandas, hell bent for leather

[jeffofx]

no ownership whatsoever to this cover. He doesn't believe in what he's singing about. Probably thinking bout some back-stage groupies instead of heavy-metla leather!!

[prisoner109]

pretty good cover, but i wish he'd say leathah instead of leather.

[Jagerfueled]

I reckon Aaron sings this well! Great cover

[landocamo]

his voice sounds too smooth for this song reminds me water going between my teeth

[Hairmetalfan1990]

I love hereing him TRY to sound like rob LOL im sorry Im LMAO at him trying to sing like Rob and i like annihilator

[MetalOutlaw]

They litterally devoured him

[Zusik12900]

much better than Judas

[wedu21]

hahah he sings like crap...nothin compared with rob

[fight3223]

@wedu21 Compared with rob anyone is crap. But i think the vocals were great, perfectly tuned... Maybe a little lack of feeling, but still i liked it.

[LongLiveThrash]

@wedu21 He is a great singer, but not comparable to Rob.

[MetalWarrior95]

@wedu21 faggot...is like you compare Rob with Dio, obviusly Dio wins, or Dickinson with Ozzy, it's the same shit, leave to Annihilator do all that they want

[cyclysm748]

@MetalWarrior95 How does Dio obviously win? In my mind they're pretty even. Dickinson with Ozzy? Again, they are both great and there is no obvious better vocalist.

[MetalWarrior95]

@cyclysm748 Halford can't sing anymore, DIO is the best heavy metal vocalist ever

[cyclysm748]

@MetalWarrior95 Halford may not have the range he once had, but his range is probably still the same as Dio had near the end of his life. Both are great, it's just personal preferance anyways. Keep it metal.

[CoolKwstas123]

@wedu21 thats becauze Jeff Waters isnt a singer. He is a guitar god

[MetalWarrior95]

@wedu21 Now Halford CAN'T sing, so...shut the fuck up

[sk1llblack]

@MetalWarrior95

Now that ai'nt true and you know it DAMNIT!

[0BLACKSABBATH]

@wedu21 stop being such a Judas Priest fanboy, he sings pretty good.

[yerfdog1935]

@wedu21 What vocalists are anything compared to Rob? ;D

[slaughter69corpse]

The solo sounded a little bit slow compared to Judas Priest............=/

[Zusik12900]

Jeff Waters doesnt need to prove himself, he plays faster than Tipton and Downing combined, just look at his Annihilator solos

[Blanqueador]

exelent cover!!!!!!

[natistheman1]

AWWSOME!!!

[stevelynch98]

haha fear factory shirt

[shuddersome07]

leatherrrrrrrrrrrrr.....that part sounds...uh....yeah

[Zusik12900]

I prefer Annihilator's version, hands down

[DiscipleOfMetal666]

holy fuck, what an awesome cover, covering gods like judas priest isn't easy but annihilator did it =D

[dape]

Great cover!!! you should hear forbidden's cover of victim of changes its fuckin mint!

[checkillo]

good coverr... awesome

[LuloDemon]

Awesome cover, you need some nuts to cover the priest, especially on vocals.

[BenimaruGEIST]

*lol* Annihilator is damn great, but gotta like the Japanese. They are fanatical and sure love their METAL! They were similar to ZOMBIES at the end with Jeff, grasping at him! Kickass.

[patita1989]

= esta un poco pasao mas a deep purple

pero ta bkn

[lilmandslat]

when he sings the choru.. hell bent hell bent for leather it sounds like hes a pirate hehe lol i think they should leave this song to judas preist...

[metalmoss]

YYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR MATEY. hell bent for leather we is

[PainkillerArg]

ajjaja a pirate

[Zodiacil]

nice playing but cant listen to another one on vocals except rob"the God"halford :).

[lemmyrocks]

Killer version of a heavy metal classic. Waters, as usual, and second guitarist Dave 'Malve' Davis are awesome.

[wyldechild54]

haha hes wearin a fear factory shirt

[fIFJBGRDBJFR]

Tha Priest rules!!!!!!

[alphadecay]

those cannibals!

[harlock999]

Fucking good, Annihilator rules. Fuck fashion !

[kc7fys]

When he hits his "metal voice" in the falsetto register, then it's apparent why this song was written outside his range. I am a crappy singer, and I sing this tune this well in the freekin' shower! Keep to your own tunes fellas. Halford rules 4EVR!

[fIFJBGRDBJFR]

Can't agree more, Rob was, is and forever will be the ultimate Metal GOD!!!! Hail the Priest!!

[Shazazmic]

It's hellbent fa leathaaah! Not hellbent for leather >_>

[mcklain]

Nice cover.

[ultraparanoia]

power metal?

[21lax]

what the fuck

power metal

[revepenate]

@merhabene

Power metal?????????

[mundsburgtower]

solo guitar sound just like the priest, singer is one more proof about that there is just one metal god on earth. again: priest can be played by anyone, but sung by halford, only.

[bloodymaryjane]

the cover was great... i like it!!!

[Thehitman847]

lol U bwver knew ppl in japan like Judas Preist

[MaidenPriest420]

good stuff

[Jauholakki]

Hyvin pojat veivaa :)

[david733]

awesome cover! =]

[Lawless84]

Wow!!!! KILLER
