Bigwig - War Ensemble

[xxDRPANDAMANxx]

It was alright, better than what rx bandits did to holy wars... God that was terrible

[hoagie13365]

The drummer is aware that theres double bass in the song...right?

[dimmublackmetal]

good song used to skateboard to it, except the elevator music part

[meangreensean]

with out the bridge it wouldnt be a cover.

[FXKStriker]

besides that elivator music part, its almost the exact same as the regular song,

[g00Db0y8]

awesome bridge



[crustme444]

i like this its edgy 

[TreverUndeadXpdX]

I think the vocals was good for it..but guitar and drums weren't that great lol.

[rissx]

when i found out my 2nd favorite band covered my 3rd favorite band i had to hear it!

[momasboy10]

lol, why can't people at least be happy they did a cover instead of bashing them?

[ErichSpivey]

Sure sounds like their Slayer fans, you can't just know how to play guitar and play this, thats for damn sure!

[MrAnarchojoe]

Bigwig is awesome. If Slayer can make an entire ALBUM covering punk songs, punk bands are allowed to cover Slayer. Chill out you little shits.

[MrImapunkrocker]

@MrAnarchojoe First of all, Big Wig isn't a punk band. And Slayer made an album of punk covers because thrash metal is heavily influenced by punk rock

[MrAnarchojoe]

Bigwig is very much a punk band.

[MrImapunkrocker]

@MrAnarchojoe Oh I just assumed all of the bands on this stupid shit weren't even punk cuz there were a lot of non punk bands claiming to be punk

[MrAnarchojoe]

I agree. Most of the time they choose shitty pop-punk bands to do covers.

[AnonymousLTD]

honestly, the vox are decent. as for the instruments on this song and the rest of the albums, it sucks.

[clayandaaron]

i liked the part... Reminded me of Dream Theater

[KADG81]

is the same fucking song.... only worst! oficially this album sucks

[justinb6003]

I way mistakingly like this song back when and just justified it w? the biggest thumbs down ever! I saw bigwig live w/ a band i actually liked and they suck!

[HoosierMF]

It wouldn't surprise me that they put that part in to piss off Slayer fans. We all know how close-minded they are

[Acekicken]

@HoosierMF U mean Bigwig are not Slayer fans?

[boogaboom]

@HoosierMF I love Slayer but that part made me fall in love for Bigwig.

[TreverUndeadXpdX]

@HoosierMF That comment is close-minded.

[ahhhitsrob]

@HoosierMF slayer? closed minded? do yourself a favor and look at what they did to Danzig this last month. these guys aren't uptight at all.

[HoosierMF]

@ahhhitsrob Never said they were. I was talking about Slayer FANS.

[ahhhitsrob]

@HoosierMF well okay. I've veen a slayer fan for 7 years. didn't offend me. don't make assumptions, there isnt a need.

[missedwithtruestrike]

that was pretty cool. no joke

[RACCOONraul]

...............im to much of a slayer fan to be a good sport about the bit a 2:21 just wtf man

[MjXllcommando]

@RACCOONraul i thought it was kinda funny, and since they nailed the rest of the song pretty well, ill let them get away with it

[drpants]

I lol'd at the swing bridge

[AintNobodyRight]

OMG! I was prepared to hate this. Diehard Slayer fan here. But damned if it ain't well done. That bit at 2:21 threw me and my daughter for a loop but was absolutely hysterical! She was like....is that part of the song? Um....nope. But hey. I'm a good sport. I liked it.

[tehkevxor1983]

Hmm... I not bad, but truthfully, it doesn't sound punk enough... I suppose that's my own expectations, I was kinda hoping for that tight yet still kinda sloppy and dirty crust punk sound. Guess Slayer's punk influence shines through, though.

[massecurr]

this a very meh cover

[JohnnyWalls301]

i like it better than the original

[Aisle3Comedy]

@JohnnyWalls301 Don't you DARE say that.

[Agghasi]

the original one is way way way better than this one

[LayingMotionless95]

No one can defeat the all mighty Slayer

[HatedAlways]

This cover wasn't THAT bad. The singer was good. The guitarist really can't play slayer, but was able to get by. The drummer is not at all fast enough. He hits his cymbals mad hard trying to compensate and it worked a little.

[AintNobodyRight]

@HatedAlways LOL! It's funny you should say that. I kinda found myself saying....almost got it!....keep up kids! But all in all, If I was with my kid at their show and they broke out with this, I might grin. A good try and the bit in the middle cracked me up. Folks need to lighten up. And YES! Nothing beats Slayer but this was funny and a great try.

[spidershaman]

that part with the drums killed it for me but i the parts before that were good

[RockaRolla71]

Quality sucks.

[keepyournoseclean]

its progressive and awesome. Just showing what a tech punk band can do with a mteal song. I doubt their trying to out do the original.

[DeathFettish]

1. this sucks

2. the first solo was terrible

3. before the bridge, there was too much drumming

4. the bridge is bullshit

5. shitty bands like this shouldn't cover slayer

[MetalFeast9]

Probbaly better than your band could do who cares its a cover it dosent sound that band i actually like the vocals

[DeathFettish]

well if i had a band, i'm sure me and my band could do better than this, considering me and my friend that would play guitar can each play this on guitar.

[MetalFeast9]

Yes but this almost sounds like a demo version of the song without editing and shit cause the recording process is a bitch thats why we have some kid who is awsome with tech stuff cause i almost threw my fucking computer out the window cause of it

[DeathFettish]

you almost threw your computer out the window because of the song?

[MetalFeast9]

During the recording process with my band yea cause it kept fucking up and almost deleted everything

[scarsunseen24]

If you want to listen to Slayer's version, do that instead, dumbass.

[13Avian13]

@scarsunseen24

True, I hate when people are like, fuck this is so different from the original it sucks. I reckon the bridge made this cover, it brought a humorous light onto this song. I would much rather different takes on a song rather than a copy of the original, cause what would be the fucking point of that?

[nouefexs2]

@DeathFettish a band can play what they fucking want, who are you to judge? Bigwig rules, it's obvious this cover for someone who likes slayer it's bullshit but you have your own slayer version to listen, why don't you do that? After criticize them look where they are and where you are... it's easy to sit your fucking ass in the computer and judge other bands you don't know

[cj0481]

@nouefexs2 FUCK YOU!!! SLAYER is the best, and always will be the best, band EVER!!! I remember BIGWIG playin' basement shows, kickin' ass, when you were still suckin' on mommy's tit!! They were one of the best bands FEARLESS put out, however, they changed through out the years! Once Tom cut off the dreads, the band lost something.

[nouefexs2]

@cj0481 hey if you really not an ignorant and can read you will understand that i didn't say that Slayer is a crappy band or Bigwig is best that they are, i just say that i like personally this version of war ensemble, i just wondering why everyone compare bigwig and slayer even tought their are very diferent bands, JUST LISTEN TO THE FUCKING SONG AND SHUT UP, if you don't like you have your own slayer version to listen to... and yes i've listen to punk rock while i suck on your mom's tits...

[JDMARING]

Can't beat the original...

[DarkWarlock666]

@JDMARING dun think its meant to beat the original tho hhh

[kingjro]

the bridge does not seem to fit the song, it seems out of place.

it would of been better towards the end.

[animatorfreek825]

bigwig is awesome

[thedddemon]

Was that bridge supposed to be smart or sarcastic?? It ruined a good cover

[AvantPunk]

i really don't know, but i'm guessing both. as for whether it's ruined... i guess it depends on your mood. sometimes it amuses me, sometimes it annoys me.

[fartass23]

i disagree! fits in perfectly

[igutpeople]

they probably made it like that because they couldn't play the original solos haha.

[Threemsify]

@thedddemon

Kiddin me?

[angelwingrl]

@thedddemon i think its cool, its just their way of putting their signature on it...

[KoenBloodThunder]

I expected the worst like in case of Harvester of Sorrow, but this cover is pretty good!
