Machine Head - Hallowed Be Thy Name

[Forfunaccount]

this covers pretty good actually obviously maidens better but this is pretty good

[apo13metaloni]

my opinion is tha iced earth's cover is better tha machine head.the guitar in iced earths cover sound amazing and barlows voice too.machine's head sound isnt so clear and they have totally changed the style of the song(this is not always bad ;))

[guitarist8688]

Awesome cover. SOOO much better than the Cradle of Filth version

[fernandoATellez]

this is a really nice cover.... is better than the iced earth cover... (or i like it more)

[noncomputergeek]

EWW!!!!

cradles version is waaayy better than this crap

[Zzzapper]

I think 'Hallowed' is too much a classic to be covered. The guys thats covering it don't very much make it there own song. But Machine Head does GJ XD

[Gyoung1991]

I think getting rid of the bass gallop hurts the song :( still badass though

[heavymetal00]

this is bit better then iced eaarth cover though i thought math cud do better

[Trexus1989]

really nice cover

[metalgod456]

best cover yet blows away cofs version

[cmar5000]

wow i like both machine head and iced earth two of my favorite bands actually but i gotta give it to machine head for tweaking the song enough to put their own twist on it but not ruin it and also props to iced earth for playing it just like the original and doing an equally kick ass job of it

[DamagedpureNL]

Awesome cover, 5.59 - 6.33 is the best part :D

[csehszlovakze]

COF's is better. It's xtreme metal...

[rgjmce]

old school metal is the only good metal

[Plawranc]

DAAAAAAAAAAAMN STRAGIHT

[sachamord]

craddle of filth is a gay shit

DIOS DEVORADOR

DIOS DEVORADOR

DIOS DEVORADOR

[csehszlovakze]

lol I was just kidding... NO ONE CAN BEAT IRON MAIDEN! NEVER!

[sachamord]

i totally agree pal

[OblivionRps]

I really like this cover. :D

[rgjmce]

me too

[NumberofPowerslave]

Best on Maiden heaven along with Metallica's cover of Remember Tomorrow. The rest of the covers sucked.

[DeathByMoshPit666]

really? I thought Prowler was pretty damn good as well.

[mikeycman]

this cover shits all over cradle's this is real music not some sad twat trying to scream

[m3talcore4lyfe]

ya this cover is pretty sweet but i prefer cradle's version

[CNHernan]

the best cover one is belong to Iced Earth, that is my favorite. Cradle of Filthy is the second.

[sachamord]

are you kidding????

ice earth one is a shit , an craddle nearly ruined the song!!!!!

[shredder365]

omg couldn't agree more.

[TheSuperion]

Very awesome cover, Iced Earth's cover is still my favourite cover, though. I like theirs as much as Iron Maiden's.

[HUTCHYBOY666]

fuckin awsome

[kkrakenn]

wow this is actually pretty good. i was expecting it to suck :D

iced earths cover is better though :)

[ANTIanitmetalclub]

i love Children of Bodom's Aces High

[MarcellusHellraiser]

I have to say, this cover is fucking awesome! Cradle of Filth did a good eerie version, but Machine Head did a better job at staying close to original. I didn't know it was a cover until I read my Sirius satellite radio's info. I was like whoa! Excellent job Machine Head, Iron Maiden is probably very happy with this cover.

[EricJohnsonisgod]

this is an amazing cover

[Macdabarber28]

Wow, Rob pulled off the vocals perfectly!

[XIIICloudIIX]

cradle of filth can suck my nuts

[xenovisionz]

i would reallly like u to say that to them. REALLY.

[bluussi]

Cradle of filth is annoying emo band. Machine head rocks and this cover is very awesome but so is the original song.

[philisateapot]

tis a good cover, although i didnt like the start bit though, or when he screamed

i like cradles version also . . i like cradle of filth, i prefer machine head. tbh i fink maiden are proud of there covers . .. MAIDEN = GODS!

[Konvictedjeezy]

Up the Irons!

[fawful67]

STOP FUCKING TALKING ABOUT CRADLE OF FILTH. THEIR COVER WAS THE SHITTIEST ONE KNOWN TO MANKIND.

They suck, period.

Machine Head does NOT suck.

Iron Maiden most definitely does NOT suck.

[JonasActhilion]

A cover is about grabbing a song thats already been made and adding your own sound to it, i've listened to this song and all i can here is the origenal played in drop-B on the guitars, and a double bass pedal

Whats so good about it?

I read your comment and fawful57 you are a twat.

At least Cradles version added a new guitar solo, keyboard, an awesome drumbeat and sped it up.

MachineHead don't suck, Maiden don't suck and cradle defo dont suck. Learn to appreciate music.

Jonas

[TheRedJacks]

Yes, Iron Maiden does not suck and they will never do

[violenceitsfree]

this version sucks i thought they would at least live up to cradle of filth n do it better if i wanted to hear this song played just like maiden id listen to maiden not some people trying to sound them , even if ur covering u gotta be original n do it ur own way other wise its just a lame ass cover boo i expected better of machine head

[1mindlessmusic1]

shut up people!!! every version of this song is great, why? because the song is that amazing!! Every version brings something different, there is no best or worst! Overal the credit has to go to Maiden for writing the song, but all the covers I've heard are good!!

[desolatednightmares]

I agree with you mindless! Fucking awesome song!

[mircoeskes]

crdle of filth do it better and with more power

[Glentorsi]

Eh. I personally think Cradle of Filth got in right. This is a song that should have some bloody emotion, not the monotone voice Iron Maiden(Not dissing, they're Gods), and Machine Head chose to go with.

[Bobton1]

calling dickinson monotone? In Hallowed be thy Name of all songs, and saying they did the song they made wrong?

have you even heard the original?

[mykindom666]

I think this was the best way for machine head. Rob may not have the operaticness of bruce, but still does a great job and the music is true to the original. None of that tempo or modified bullshit that most bands try to do to covers and just fuck up.

[ADERFIO]

All of the band that did this album, besides Metallica, all deserve to have themselves castrated. Way to fuck up some great songs, you fucking assclowns.

[thetrueantichrist666]

Eugh... hate this... love Machine Head but this sucks dick....

COF are the best band in the world and their cover of this Rocks, this is just pathetic... u all sound like posers...and emos... mainstream bullshit, this could be a fucking pop song its so bad....

Fine join my endless list of h8rs.... XD

See if I give a fuck... :)

[Ishouldnotbe]

damn you're evil...

[vikktror]

If something is fucked up, then it is that anyone can think that COF is the best band. Sucky goddamn clowns are what they are.

MH Rocks!

[ChristopherIanKing]

Hmmm...i dont think the singing in begining was good, asside from the running low thing, but HA.

Cradle Of Filth, will never be, the greatest band in the world.

Instrumentals are good, but what Cradle is, is a modern shock rock band, mixed with Venom, with a tad hint of a homo who screams because he has no ACTUAL talent to sing, or at least try.

Put that in a blender, mix it up, and you have one of thee most overated bands period.

Props to the guitarist and drummer, but Dani is the worst.

[Plawranc]

every cover beats COFths cover face it they suck i disgust myself saying their name in relation to iron maiden

[jsway81]

Very good cover. It's good to know that at least some of the bands on this album stayed true to the songs.

[deadlysin687]

it wasnt bad till the screming just like the last holy diver cover i heard

[dragondxs]

I agree, I was actually really enjoying this song till the screaming started :(

Apart from that though I thought it was still a good cover, the musicians did a great job playing it.

[fawful67]

Can we please not even fucking MENTION the Cradle of Filth cover? No one wants to hear about that shitty cover. Let the mallcore kiddies have their fake metal.

[Beda111]

MACHINE FUCKING HEAD

[straight138edge]

the fucks with the thumbs done? i think this is awesome, kicks cradle of filths ass (altho no-one beats the maiden version) dream theaters is also good.

LET FREEDOM RING WITH A SHOTGUN BLAST!!

[Yangsta7]

cradles cover got owned by this one. UP THE IRONS!!!!

[kennymustdie29]

love this song this cover is great but not nearly as good as original

[chiefwiggum1812]

maiden n Machine head should be the only people doin this song, fuck dream theatre, buncha pussy, this is amaizing, love machine heads cover of msg in a bottle to!!

[XtremeCam]

This may be the best of the covers on the album.

[XV100]

FUCKIN METALL MUTHA FUCKAS!!!! UP THE IRONS!!!! \m/

[straight138edge]

decent version...obviously isnt typical mh style, and i think it was a bloody good tribute. machine fucking head!!

[phaserwah]

"Pretty good cover. Vocals can never compare to Dickinson's"

i think rob did a pretty good job on the vocals! bruce's vocals are really high!

[taylorisgod101202]

Pretty good cover. Vocals can never compare to Dickinson's

[12456123]

Its too slow, particulary for a Machine Head cover

[zionated]

MACHINE FUCKING HEAD

[COFLordAbortionCOF]

I like Cradles cover of this song a lot

Defo one of my favorite covers of any song

This one is good too so is dream theaters but lol

[travmanx]

1. Cradle of Filth

2. Machine Head

3. Dream Theater

4-100. none you all suck :)

[DaAcidiouS]

nice cover, yeah...but for my oppinion, one of the best covers of that song is made by dream theater...

but this is great 2 :D

[ImmortalSpammer]

fucking awesome cover. the cradle of filth version sucked big balls

[wingblade102]

very awesome cover...... very well done. i just prefer Adrian Smith on lead. the vocals are nice, but screaming in this beautiful song doesn't work for me, Bruce Dickinson's voice has such a beauty... that this singer of Machinehead's cannot duplicate. The drums i must say are very impressive. Atleast when i listen to this cover, i dont think "oh god why" i think, it's awesome.

[GuitarHeroJP]

Best cover on the album... and i dont usualy listen to covers!

[H3xxl0RxXx]

When I first read that MH covered Iron Maiden I thougt "Oh no - Please don't cover this great Song!" but why?

I would even dare to say that this Cover is better than the Original!

It's a better Sound and I like the Double Bass!

Better than good! :-)

[pigvocalsrule]

amazing cover

[DMilla0098]

nice ccover!!

[FireAndFlames666]

this was fuckin well done

im a machine head fan, and i had no idea he was this good of a singer, and that the band could stay within the limits of a maiden cover

but they did fuckin well, and it was a sweet cover

UP THE IRONS!

[bldouttheeyes]

MACHINE FUCKING HEAD!

[maideniac69]

Good!I think the best cover of this song is by Solitude Aeturnus,check it out!

[burnsometrashcans]

machine head know, what they do.

kickass cover!

[slothape]

best cover on the disc but that aint saying much unfortunately

[wastedsyears]

im pretty sure theres only like 2-3 good covers on the cd this is 1 the other is fear of the dark

[DiogoRibeiro14]

For me only metallica, machine head and trivium did really good covers. The ones who did trooper are ok, the rest are not that great at all. And I hope someone rapes Sign for assassinating Run To The Hills, because thats the worst cover song I ever heard, and I've heard some pretty bad shit!

[bldouttheeyes]

true that. that was terrible

[mykindom666]

I agree, it was fucking horse shit. Fuck signs for fucking up a great song, should have gotten a different band to do the cover.

[clairvoyant19]

great cover

[metalcritic81]

impressive

[angryoldmanofbirth]

And Machine head does it again delivering us an epic song cover

[PureFuckinHeavyMetal]

fucking awesome, i was shocked at Robbs "singing" voice, but you can still hear that its him in certain parts. they also seem to have chose to do the song like the recorded version insted of like the live version, and i think thats a cool choice. great cover :D

[K1PHART]

Alright. Cradle of Filths version is way harder and a little better in my opinion.

[ERIC23CPT]

fucken sic ass cover

[assholemaster0000]

Epic!

...enough said

[Thrashmetal6666]

omg...fucking awesome

[DannyTuck88]

They hot Madina Lake to cover a Metal song? Jesus christ. This is a great cover nice one Machine Fucking Head!!!! Bullet should hav done the Iron Maiden cover that trivium did though. Would of been miles better!

[Frambusjt]

awesome when he does the real Rob scream :) Great cover

[wes89mcz]

I seen machine head perform this live, it was off the fuckin hook.

my favorite maiden song for sure

[Demanufacture666]

Machine Head have done a fucking great job

[whiteboy420pothead]

he did do a good job

[snaiderx]

They actually covered mighty Iron Maiden and got away with it quite nicely while dozens of others have failed. Good work.. \m/

[SoCDeViL]

best cover of maiden heaven

[Whitespy307]

Rob fucking Flynn is the man !!!!

[salawelho666]

pretty good, too bad rob tries to sound like di anno/dickinson too much.

[chrisemp21]

i dont think rob trys to hard i reckon he nailed it

[ShinSuperSaiyajin]

Rob's voice here is similar when Machine Head covered Battery. I guess his "singing" voice is improving... although I like his growling voice more than his singing voice.

[nowai87654]

Not a fan of machine head....but this awesome!

[jugulator1989]

What i find strange about the album is, apart from Machine Head, Metallica and Dream Theater, Even A7X and Trivium i suppose, the rest of the bands are complete fucking nobody's..... Cheers Kerrang!

[MotorLips]

I wouldn't say Coheed and Cambria, Devildriver, and Black tide are complete nobody's but i agree they could have picked some better known artists.

[jugulator1989]

I was really pissed off at Devildriver actually, the music was excellent for the whole tune, the vocals were excellent for the first two lines, then the guy starts harmonising with death metal vox...

[puissse]

i really wish they would of kept Cradle of Filths version, that fucking owned!!

[yupidoda]

Great cover, blew me away

[decepticonfan]

Machine Head did a great job of covering this song. It's alot better than the cradle of filth one.

[TkMarx08]

machine head destroy cradle of filth

[decepticonfan]

Hell Yeah!!!!

[chriswilcockson]

awesome cover by and awesome band to an awesome song

[ancientshredder]

im fucking loving this cover + triviums, both awsome

[HPDDJ]

Fuckin' great cover.

[FyrenFlamez]

Machine head is an awesome band and to do an Iron Maiden cover this well, makes them even better. Keep making kick ass music Machine head.

[FyrenFlamez]

awesome cover

[TheNdnTrooper777]

it's horrible

iron maiden is not ment to be screamed

but the guitars are good

[ironduke3376]

You obviously never saw Maiden live in 80's or 90's then? Try listening to this track on live after death. This is a fantastic cover of one of the best tracks ever written.

[TheNdnTrooper777]

acutlly i have and they don't attempt to do a metal-core scream

[therandomlegend]

awesome cover!!

[DeadpoolSuomi]

Awesome cover, not as good as the original but a damn good attempt.
