I'm the guy uploaded this video, and I'm still going to comment on how fucking awesome Ripper Owens is at vocals and how James Murphy kills at guitar \m/
Absolutely amazing cover of one hell of a metal track. Makes me proud og beeing danish, and a good buddy to both Hank and Denner. They were and are groundbreaking guitarists.
@jamesfmurphy I love seeing whats going on with the guitar in any live setting and have noticed that most of the time with any band you see that the cameras are totally missing the action. I once thought it was purposeful to hide proprietary movements of the musicians but i think its just incompetant camera guys.lol watching old Randy Rhoads footy its especially evident as well.
Don't worry, James. We love ya, man. But I know what you mean: these camera guys often don't seem to have a clue when someone's soloing. Sorry it seems to happen to you a lot, though.
This version of a classic metal song is terrific. Everyone plays his arse off and looks to be into it, big time. Hails!
@scottpwns0122 My doctor(imaginary one) said to me, that it was just an awesome ear orgasm. Because of listening to awesome music!.. other than that i came in my pants aswell ;)
How many 15-18 year olds would bother to go to something called a "Roadrunner United Live Concert," if they don't know who King Diamond is? They wouldn't know more than half the people that are on stage
@FdEMtL25 "TMZ has posted the 911 audio recording, where the hotel maintenance worker that found Gray's body tells authorities he saw a hypodermic needle and pills in the room. Mike Kellow, who worked at the TownePlace Suites in Urbandale, a suburb of Des Moines, Iowa, said he found the deceased in a corner of his room slumped against a wall." He's dead man.
Wow... i love how the crowd rocks out to this badass fuckin band doing a cover of an even more badass fuckin band but the crowd like does a slowdance to fuckin Deicide...if i were at that concert when Deicide played Dead By Dawn i would've been headbanging so hard i would've gone into a concussion... this is still the best cover yet ! GO TIM!
I'm usually not too big of a Ripper fan (I don't really dislike him, just not really a fan) but GODDAMN this cover is awesome. Props to these guys, they sound great.
No you guys are whack. It's not about who can sing this better, it's just the fact that the King is singing it. Tim is as good as King but he is still not King. He's just the next best thing.
Ripper Owens, Jeff Waters and James Murphy - I don't think any of these guys quite get the recognition they deserve. Fucken epic track!
