[sociopathicregret]

bell solo ftw

[ninjamastr402]

1:46 reminds me of the beginning of destructo spin

[edmame]

the key/meter changes have smoother flow and make for easier listening. but the original - technology or rudimentary blueprint or whatever - gives you a sense of all mainstream culture he disdains, contrasted with the (beautiful harmonizing of) private revelry in "bicycle race" (a tour de france tight bod in lycra lol) that shuts out the outside world he's disgusted by. so the jarring changes have a purpose.

[Billinois78]

I can't explain why, but the first 6 seconds always reminds me of "Weird Al" Yankovic.

[barden1069]

That's metal as fuck

[Goat93man]

some of the pictures are tricycle :D

epic cover

[Timic83amv]

6 people liked star wars

[MrDude904]

1:26 a bike from France xD

Covers help broaden people's often restricted musical taste. They actually lead me to new bands more than the radio or forums or any other public medium. You like what you like and thats simple, but the fact is a genre is a falsity and its really all just MUSIC. Which is why music is so fucking cool and spans cultural and continental divides becuase it speaks to everyone in the same language.

[Grungeisdead36]

btbam made this album to get off victory

[riotthecha]

@Grungeisdead36 obviously that's not true cuz they put out "colors" and "the great misdirect" on Vitctory and are just now on Metal Blade

[JonathanFuentes91]

@Grungeisdead36 Actually, Victory made them record this because they wanted them to have an album when they played Ozzfest.

[zucky22389]

Another thing it does is it gives BTBAM's listening audience a chance to experience amazing bands that they may have overlooked. Have you heard BTBAM's cover of Us and Them by Pink Floyd? I don't think I would have gotten into Floyd if it weren't for that cover to open my eyes to 'em.

[nesteabottle]

@zucky22389 hmm, i dont think i would have ever gotten into btbam if it werent for the Us and Them cover. Still believe the acoustic melody of colour blind is choice, but its all opinions anyways.

We are proof there is more value to bands playing other band's shit than strictly quality and enjoyability of a cover or song period. Which in itself is purely subjective anyways for reasons including what fckth3systm said above and becuase a cover is not an original composition (obvious I know).

[riotthecha]

@zucky22389 that's my favorite Floyd song; i'm glad that btbam did it justice

[1xDRCx]

@riotthecha This is by Queen, Us and them is he cover of Floyd BTBAM did

[riotthecha]

@1xDRCx i'm aware of that, duder; i was conferring with zucky22389 about their majestic Floyd cover

[JoeDubG]

@riotthecha the floyd cover is majestic. almost perfect. the only thing i can say about it is that the saxophone solo is too buried in the mix. other than that, its perfect

[Baphomet417]

where was the picture of Pee Wee Herman's bike?

[InfectedProfessor]

hahaha this is very good

[fighisver]

this is actually good XD

[Afireinside912]

Awesome cover, not a fan of between the buried and me.. but nice job guys! :)

Queen is one of the greatest bands ever!

[423likeajewel]

interesting... but of course I still love the Queen version better :)

[fma13rox64]

I have a passion for older bands and epic electric guitar riffs... this is love. :D

[davethehostage]

i know i'll be despised for saying it, but i think i actually like this better than the original lol.

it's probably just due to all the the technological advancements since Queen first recorded it, but it's still an awesome cover nonetheless.

[Stinechk]

Hah, badass cover!

[deftonedvolta]

lmao...most epic bike bell solo ever!

[TheMSKandBDK]

haha

[DarkMusicWizard]

There's no band that can do vocal harmonies like Queen still. But it's a good cover :)

[JetsToReason]

i like how they made it their own :)

[AskMeOrHim]

i think that all the harmonys are cool

[Triphallia]

it's the song by queen but more metal!

[devo193]

What I love about this cover is that, even though it sticks to the original fairly well, BTBAM adds their own spin on it which makes it awesome.

[renegade220]

This makes me so happy! My favourite Queen song AND my favourite band? :D

[Jablez99]

Badass cover

[Justin011794]

I bet they had so much fun doing the anatomy of :P

[fckth3systm]

I dont believe good cover albums are competitive by nature, i believe that the artists involved are tying to shed a new light on a song that influenced them as in this case. Other bands may try to take a song and add a new message or twist to it. What separates a good cover from a bad is when you can tell that a band loved the song and, therefore, loves to play it. As a musician i would never think a song was "a great" or "classic" if i thought i could do it better even if it had flaws.

[Denico164]

@fckth3systm Im quoting this.

[safaru9]

QUEEN IS SOOOOO MUCH BETTER, ANY DAY

[thegreatmrt]

Its a tribute...their whole cd this is on is a tribute to the bands that fuse together to make their sound, they didnt aim to be better, or sound better, its a tribute to their heroes.

[TimTehPilot]

I'm a huge Queen fan but I have to say this version is way better. But it makes sense due to technological advancements.

[eduardorox0694]

this versions better aha

[uh5u5u4]

LOL

i like this song of BTBAM XD

[Geoxinator]

and 2:56 is wat i have.

[Geoxinator]

at 0:27 that is what i want to get.

[jbakajohnnyb]

Such an amazing cover. Just because it is BTBAM performing.
