Machine Head - Alan's on Fire (Poison Idea cover)

[unmother]

This version is 100000 times better than original, This song should be better known

[unmother]

This version is much better than original!

[HoosierMF]

Chaos AD, Burn My Eyes and Demanufacture all released around the same time and probably the peak for Roadrunner because they went downhill after 1997.

What's interesting about these 3 albums is the very obvious hardcore punk influence. Sepultura covered Final Conflict and RDP. Machine Head covered Poison Idea and the Cro-Mags. Fear Factory covered Agnostic Front.

[necroseptic]

@HoosierMF With Divine Intervention and Far Beyond Driven out in and around the same time it was a good time to get into metal. Thankfully just before all the nu metal wankery kicked in.

[NixonAddict]

Not a bad version at all. Still like the original version better. Seems no one can come close to Jerry A's raw vocal power.

[Hedstrom73]

This is shit compared to the original...

[unmother]

machine head improved this song

[unmother]

how can not be famous if this song is very very cool

[unmother]

està canciòn es demaciado chida como para que nadie la conosca

[AustinBray1994]

originals are always better. on rare occasions covers are better. this is definitely not one of those occasions. POISON IDEA FOREVER!

[Vigget]

[RobbKongMetal999]

@saruamu

It's on the limited edition of Burn My Eyes...

[ILLRICARDO]

it is one the blackening limited edition, which was released after the original edition

[superhaffy]

These guy's are cheating the original version, on the verses they have changed the drums and taken an easy way out...

[nedesnik]

this is ok for a cover, same as panteras version of the badge, but POISON IDEA wrote these songs, they were PUNK!!!! long live jerry a and pig champ!!!!

[thk5150]

@nedesnik I totally agree. Poison Idea blows these guys away!

[peephole101]

[peephole101]

ur a cunt!!!

[peephole101]

this is sikk

[BGG001]

You need to learn your metal histroy

[bobokk]

Lacks the aggression in the vocals but not a bad effort

[drufle]

do they have demmel still...dont sound like it....anyways, dont wanna get ahead of myself

[BGG001]

They still have Phil Demmel, this was written back in 1992.

[nigletgook]

poison idea's version blow this one away and always will if you've seen poison idea live you'll know what i mean long live jerry a!! R.I.P. Pig!!!!!

[diaboloetsatanas]

@nigletgook completely agree

[BreadGuy3]

[DecapitateD199]

well,this song is about 10 year old.I mean the machine head version.They recorded it about 1999 i think but i dunno why they wanted to pubblish it now...I was lovin that song till that cd broke and it seems i had to w8 till the blackening to hear it again ffs

[frasercook]

I like Machine Head...

but the original is better.

[sesarcaca]

this song is much better whit machine head than whit poison idea

[slapperham1]

How can it be? Poison idea wrote it silly bollox.

[sesarcaca]

very cool song!

[sesarcaca]

from what disc is this song?

[djthe]

it's from disk 2 of the special edition cd/dvd set of The Blackening

[rigila]

Actually it was launched in their debut BurnMyEyes special edition in 94.

[DrackIler]

@djthe and Burn My Eyes

"Alan`s On Fire" - 4:00 (Poison Idea cover) (Digipak bonus track)

[Karelcradle]

@djthe

It was in fact originally from the digipack Burn My Eyes

[Skubbagaroosed]

@djthe its also on the digipak fromm burn my eyes 1994

[helmar140990]

@djthe it was allready on the german edition from burn my eyes

[djthe]

@helmar140990 Alright alright guys, I know it's not just on the special edition of The Blackening. It's on a lot of other disks too apparently. Thank you for telling me, now please stop it.

[TheMfck]

@sesarcaca you can find this one, also on "darckchild compilation" disc...my band use to cover MH on this one as 10 ton hammer :D great cover!!!! much energy !!!!

[duncanthedragon]

@sesarcaca 

[Thunderwolf666]

@sesarcaca It was the B-Side of "Old" if memory serves.

[bluton78]

checkout their cover of hallowd be thy name (INSAINLY AWESOME !! ; / this is pretty cool as well but not quit like their maiden cover ..

[SaffronsGhost]

It's faster, far more hardcore, and has production values.

In other words, it's about 1000x better.

[nigletgook]

i don't think so, i think P.I's blows these dudes away.... no one can match Jerry A. live..

[thk5150]

I fully agree!

[nigletgook]

not bad, but not poison idea either. nothing can top the original.

[jessehicks]

all poison idea covers are not as good as the originals (in my opinion)

this is good though !

[thk5150]

its a little faster

[Sesquipedaliantique]

I WILL! BE HEARD!

Good cover, doesn't differ too much from the original though.
