I would like to think that Devin didn't change anything on purpose. He's certainly capable of turning this song into something completely different, and the fact that he didn't might just mean he liked the original too much to change it.
it doesnt touch the orginal- Todd avery's voice is is more raw and desperate- its not a bad cover and I love the song but they didnt add anything differnet and the guys voice just sounds- like he is signing a cover
I prefer this one to the original, for some reason. I guess this one gives me this dark feeling of glee, almost like taking pleasure in someone's suffering. Like the lulz, only dark and morbid. Wait, that's still the lulz.
It's totally awesome. I don't agree 'bout all this "killing the classic".
Both versions are great, anyway SYL's one sounds a lil' like from behind the wall. The CSC original is darker and sounds a bit cleaner. Can't decide which better. Both are great.
Townsend's vocals are far from bad, dude. I'd say that his vocal talents are probably the best I've heard to date, and most likely the most versatile and best vocals in Metal today.
KiLLER! much better than the original! ( finally someone did it)!!!!!!!!!!

you can take this cover as a chill-out after 40 minutes of HEAVY PRESSURE of CITY recording. Devy rules!

Eh, if you don't like it then fuck off. I like Cop Shoot Cop, but I prefer SYL's version actually.
It's an awesome fucking cover. Not very different from the original, sure, but that doesn't make it bad. So screw off.

Anyways, City's a great album.

where's the point to play a cover when the music is completely the same as the original??? where's the peculiarity?

Although this song far from showcases this.
