Jesus Christ. Why is it that every tome someone tries covering a metal/hard rock song with acoustic instruments and clean vox, people bash the shit out of it? I don't get it. The only real issue I had with this cover were the vocals around the "my father" bit. But other than that, it was nice and simple, it was pretty tight and in tune, the harp sounded cool, and the singer actually did a good job giving the vocals a serj-style flavor. This is a reinterpretation. If you want a reproduction, the
very good job on taking a song that was so onesided a genre and making into something else while it will never have the original feel because uhm Serj tankians NOT singing it its still good nonetheless so dont listen to the idiots who are trying to compare you to soad, what a bunch of dumbasses
..., you sing and play guitar but that mess up all song, better not try metal song, take a pop song or someting like that, but if you wanna rock, then play that more faster and noisy, just and advice...
mate, i love SOAD, but i cannot listen to taht kindda crappy arty farty covers. You think that the singer sings awesome? Ya wrong man. Hear the part "I cry...". He sings lame. Sorry
You only think its bad because youre too use to SoaD singing it. These dudes put THEIR OWN style on a great song.
Besides, its actually hard to make MOST songs that were written for electric into an acoustic song. They did great. Have an open mind. If you hear one thing done great a certain way, don't just automatically write it off as bad in a different style.
Umm for the haters... Why do you hate it so much ? It's a different aproach to the really good song, yeah it sounds slower but that was the idea, changing song's rythm is not a bad idea as long as it sounds decent, and this one is really good. my little advice to you all haters and fan boys: Just try to be open-minded
Nice original sound, some of us can apreciate new takes on popular songs. It doesnt always have to sound like the damn Cd version. Not all of us can do what Serj does.
don't you system lovers get bored of same even more crappy covers?
I honestly think that having your own unique interpration of a song is great. When it sounds better then it's even more great, and it doesn't even matter if the song is by a folk group or pegan metal ;) It can allways sound good if the players are experienced and can think they'r own ways which might sound much better then the originals :)
XD is this supposed to be cool? C'mon man... i mean, it was a good effort and all but seriously... i pretty much agree with everyone else that you shouldn't have changed the song up...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Its not even the right chords!!! Seriously, just put the guitars down HARD against the side of your piano, and STOP playing music you hear on the radio.
wow this is truly awesome! i LOVE how its so different yet it fits perfectly and you have great rhythm riffs also lead.. i love it, it sounds good, sounds like it, basically.. u know what i mean.. keep up the good work guys.
well its not like original, still its diferent and made pretty well.. and all haters should shut up,yeah he made song sound different, most of you can't even play guitar or sing and he does that and also made chop suey sound different 5/5!
When reading these comments, i thought,not another terrible cover for SOAD song. To my suprise i was quite taken aback by the quality of your music. Even though it was alot more softer it worked well for this song. Great work guys, 5/5!
Dont listen to these guys they no nothing about music.
This was original, well played and the sense of harmony between the instruments... 5 BIG STARS indeed. Would you mind sending me a clean recorded version of this? This is too good to be true. Hope my comment helped. Keep Acoustikin!
Covers shouldn't sound like the original. That is boring! They shold still sound good though. This sounds both good and is unlike the original, so... well done!
5 Stars Awesome! I have to disagree with cyberdems down there. The chords sound right and nothing sounds off. It's probably just because you guys are using more chords than just power chords :D. Its good to see some original covers...none of that bleak boring stuff where they sound like the original. Kudos guys! Keep it up!
the harmony sounds wrong.. i can hardly make out what part of the song you're in when you're not singing. I understand this is a totally different style you guys have recreated the song into but i mean something sounds totally off; take out that piano the notes arent corresponding with the chords, etc.
What the hell?!

If this is a lullaby, this is more of a 'nightmare lullaby'.
The concept is to twist the songs, and never play it the way they were originally played.
That's a surprise, and a game: you may like it or not.
But as I said earlier, the composers play them very well because they composed it indeed.
So this is just our vision.
