Modest Mouse and Califone- South Of Heaven (Slayer Cover)

[dudesons441]

@Tri1umph Nah. Modest Mouse is butter duuud

[Tri1umph]

Modest mouse just couldn't come close to slayers level of awesomeness. Leave it to the pros.

[MrSpootnick]

WHy is everyone complaining about this song? its jsut amazing, powerfull interpretation, unic catch.

This guys rock! D:

[Aamonath]

weird cover. not sure if i think it's amazing or terrible. will have to listen more.

[thrashandburn64]

Holy shit, this is beyond awful.

[dudesons441]

@thrashandburn64 I love you too

[Blacktoothgrin23]

Tom araya is a lyrical genius. All you Christians STFU because their interpretation of christianity is too fucking accurate. Slayer is way better than gwar and modest mouse put together.

[dudesons441]

@Blacktoothgrin23 Herpy Derpy Derp.

[PresidentOfJelybeans]

[dudesons441]

@PresidentOfJelybeans COME'ERE AND SQUEL LIKE A PIGGEH BOI!

[MarcusMatamua]

ummmmmmmmmmm  this should not be im sorry its fcuking horrible, lyrics made me laugh how there sang tho

[dudesons441]

@MarcusMatamua It's okay baby <3

[Guercinator]

Ya know, I think this is even darker than the original. It's got an unexpected evil behind it the the original (while still dark and evil) seems to lack.

[nitarbell]

Wow, this is an amazing cover. Really trippy and fucked up.

[chefsparks]

Thanks for uploading this (3 years ago). Downloaded this in probably '02, and many hard drives later lost it. I'm glad to have it back. BTW, I'm a little impressed you take the time to respond to the 13 year old waste products of public education that are youtube commenters. Keep up the good work; and feel free to correct my grammar.

[XFACTORxfc]

dudesons441 listen you little virgen fuck i take shits that sound better than this garbage you probably like this shit because you got breastfed until you were 14 and fyi i will go listen to the original.cunt fuck this trash it aint thrash

[dudesons441]

@XFACTORxfc WOAH!! Somebody's mad!!! Hahahahahahaha. Take a second grade English class and then try talking to me.

[XFACTORxfc]

wtf is this trash!!!??? if your going to cover a song at leats come close these songs are supposed to make your blood start pumping butr instead i feel like listening to country!

[dudesons441]

@XFACTORxfc If you don't like it, then listen to the original. Cunt.

[mercenio1423]

@dudesons441 agreed negro

[mercenio1423]

@XFACTORxfc a cover dosnt have to be the exact same. ever heard of artistic difference. i depends on how you view the song, personaly i think this is a much better version. AND in no way dose this sound like country you dirty cocker spanial if you dont like it get outa here. i would rather listen to modest mouse than slayer. fag.

[iamaguywhodigschicks]

lol GWAR... Slayer ftw

[Ghostofgrace92]

awesome cover, people who say they Butchered it just don't know what music really is an art form, this is just they're take on the song, it's not trying to one up it or do what they think is better, just a different take on whats been done before, i think it is amazing, creepy, haunting and Dark. i love it

[drufle]

This is fucking horrible.

[havishamcarmody]

@drufle No way, it's awesome.

[nevets4ever]

Ancient alchemy = Pb2Au.

Modern alchemy = MM morphing Metal into Indie.

[killemallproductions]

LOL dudesons your retarded. 2 good songs. XDD slayer are the masters of thrash metal. one of the only thrash metal bands to stay completely strong with successful albums their whole career. btw they killed this, its not even the same timing at all. they basically just ripped off the lyrics and put it with one of their own songs

[dudesons441]

@killemallproductions "your" should be "you're". Slayer being the masters of thrash is highly opinionated. A cover isnt supposed to be exactly like the song. Timing has nothing to do with it. Ripped off the lyrics? If they ripped Slayer off im sure there would be a major law suit. So they must have gotten permission from who ever.

Gwar fucking destroys Slayer

[killemallproductions]

@dudesons441 LOL OH SHIT YOU CORRECTED MY GRAMMAR ON THE INTERNET XDD this isnt english class, man. and no, it says its a cover. they don't need permission to do a cover of any song. lol and gwar only destroys slayer at stage performance. gwar vs slayer LOL thats not even a fucking question. i could understand if it sounded ANYTHING like south of heaven, but all they did was take the lyrics, so stfu

[havishamcarmody]

@killemallproductions Actually you do need permission to cover a song if you're going to sell it (maybe even if you're not, I'm not sure) and this song was on a compilation album filled with heavy metal covers that was sold in stores. So someone got permission.

Gwar destroys Slayer in technical proficiency and stage performance. Slayer is' awesome, but Gwar is better. And you need to remember to put apostrophes in between contractions (isnt should be isn't).

[havishamcarmody]

@dudesons441 I love Slayer, but Gwar is the shit. This cover is awesome, too.

[BillyThaKidd13]

@dudesons441 slayer would never b destroyed by a band that dresses up like lame power ranger villains

[Guercinator]

@dudesons441 :D :D :D

[rigbchas]

@killemallproductions Slayer has covered many songs and put their own spin on it... Take Steppenwolf's Born To Be Wild for example. Great song, great cover, but the timing is different from the original. But you know, if you don't like it, you can always listen to something else :)

[solidcaptainfalcon]

@killemallproductions slayer did the same thing to Verbal Abuse, except wayyyyyyy worse

[mercenio1423]

@killemallproductions in my opinion, modest mouse and califone played this better

[mercenio1423]

@killemallproductions you have poo for brains

[LuciFurrz]

Well I do have to admit that this is certainly an interesting take on a great song by Slayer, the only real complaint that I have is that the vocals aren't quite as strong as they should have been to match Tom Araya's voice, but I do have to admit that I'm pleased that Modest Mouse did a cover of one of my favorite bands.

[dudesons441]

@LuciFurrz yeah i kinda agree with you on the vocals. They should be alot more crisp and loud.

[klungzilla]

Horrible cover of a horrible song by a horrible band (Slayer) so yeah...who cares.

[havishamcarmody]

@klungzilla What? You're a horrible cover of a horrible song by a horrible band. Everything and everyone involved in this song (original band, cover bands, original song, cover song) is awesome. You're just jealous because you couldn't join a heavy metal band because you couldn't grow your hair long. Let me guess, you like Little River Band.

[mikedoubleZ]

i hated modest mouse before, now i really fucking hate em. way to ruin a song fags

[dudesons441]

Boo fucking hoo! Go blog about all of your problems. No one cares about your opinions. Slayer only has two well written songs. The rest is monotonus drop D tuning, fast penatonic solos, and double bass out the ass. A depressed 4th grader could write just as well as they do.

[primalheat1]

i agree slayer is just speed...thats it...their solos dont even fit their songs

[pepetigs]

horrible, annoying, faggish, jumbled fn mess, loser, way to destroy slayer's finest moment

[dudesons441]

Hahaha and Slayer isnt a jumbled mess?

[HeathenousVillian]

Wtf? They ruined the fucking song!

[dudesons441]

OH NO!

[KemoSabe420]

Or either its just a dropped B tuning but with one small variation...the 1st string would be dropped to B also

[KemoSabe420]

I figured it out!

Alright the key of this song is B and the tuning of their guitars is exactly like DADGAD but dropped down a full step and a half or 3 frets down something like BF*BEF*B.

Hope that helps!

i will work on the tabs soon.

[dudesons441]

awesome! thanks. sorry i didnt notice your post until now =/

[dudesons441]

@KemoSabe420 Did you get around to tabbing this yet? :P Ive been wanting to try to but i procrastinate too much.

[monkeymagoo47]

Holy shit... an indie band covering Slayer? I don't really like it, but if indie fans think it sounds good....

[Sagebigly7]

I'm not into slayer, but this is an awesoem sounding song. Love. Thanks for upload Dudesons....sir duderony!!!

Modest mouse is awesome....

[dudesons441]

yeah this is one of my favs too. i would kill to get the tabs to this song.

[ModestMouse1207]

Find tabs yet?

[dudesons441]

no lol. i think they are tuned to DADGAD. im not sure. ill see if my guitar teacher can figure it out.

[ModestMouse1207]

Ahh, I hate tunings that aren't standard or Drop D.

[dudesons441]

yeah they can get really annoying at times. but DADGAD tuning sounds really cool.

[ModestMouse1207]

Well I haven't done a DADGAD tuning, I guess I'll have to try it. How do make the D tuning for the High e?

[dudesons441]

you drop it like the low E i belive. i dont have my guitar with me right now. im sure you can find it online actually

[ModestMouse1207]

Well on my tuner when I made the high e sound lower it's pitch by 2 frets it registered as a D on my tuner.

[ModestMouse1207]

Great song.

[ModestMouse1207]

I would love it if they tried to cover Raining Blood... I wonder how Modest Mouse would make that song sound... lol.

[reapershadow666]

so um were they drunk doing this? really the worst Slayer cover EVER.

[xxcrazykeithxx]

AGREED!

[dudesons441]

your opinion doesent matter ass hole

[dudesons441]

your opinion doesent matter ass hole

[reapershadow666]

oh it obviously does matter or else you wound have your panties in a bunch. this song is complete shit and is a disgrace to the actual song

[dudesons441]

my panties arent in a bunch. Slayer sucks anyways. yeah i used to be a metal head but now it fucking suckes. but thats my opinion. if you dont like the song why post a comment? your just begging for an arguement

[xxcrazykeithxx]

because its fun to bash emo fags like you

[dudesons441]

lol. how the hell am i emo dude? i think your the emo one.

[xxcrazykeithxx]

im not wasting my time on you pathetic emo ass

[dudesons441]
