The Dead Weather - Forever My Queen (From The Basement)

[pjautuvas]

The original is better but I like this too, plus Allison is just hot.

[poeticwarrior8]

i fucking love it. they sound more solid every time i check em out!!!!!!!!

if you are a true fan of pentagram then u should support whatever exposure(cover or not) they receive. i never heard of them nor this song and would probably never if it wasn't for the genius collaboration of allison mossheart and jack white. why do some overexcited fans act out like clingy, possesive junior high girlfriends??? music is for all.

[mardymonkey94]

is there a studio version of this anywhere?

[Uhlenbroek]

this is amazing <3

[lurkerofvalis]

I heard about this cover awhile back and I'm just checking it out. It's not too bad but I may have some bias because I knew Alison circa Discount when I lived in Vero Beach, I hung w/ the metal/punk kids that supported DIY shows and she never seemed remotely interested in anything heavy then, she was all J Church/ Fugazi, we felt that her and her friends kind of looked down on us scenewise. Maybe she's changed, we all do, but for me its a bit odd seeing her cover this...

[marthasreturn]

word, i wouldnt say that i am a fan of this band at all but they have good taste in tunes and pulled off a pretty good version of this song (except i hate female vocals). They havent butchered Pentagram quite as bad as Hank III has anyways.

[jamesatthedisco69]

Alison is forever my queen <3

[PsychedelicLife]

yeah fucking high on opioids and trip to the music. such a dark and rough sound...epic

[CrashMoe1]

Her voice isnt awesum enuf for this jam!!! BOOOOO!!!!!!!

[ohjames88]

who cares who covers what? its not who wrote it, its how you play it! thats what music is fuckin about! And dead weather kicked this songs ass (in a good way)

Anyway, why does everyone forget Rolling stones first few albums were almost ALL cover songs. who cares? just did the tunes man, and if you dont like em, fuck off and work in a library

[DoomMetalSludge]

PENTAGRAM!!!!

[RustyShackelfurt]

Kick ass cover.

People get so defensive about bands covering other bands. It's silly, especially since the original artist likes other bands playing their songs. Also, anyone that uses the term "poseur" or "sellout" is an idiot.

[TheCoppers]

Music is music. There are many different genres and offshoots of those genres and covers of songs from bands who play in offshoots of genres. Like it, love it, hate it. But don't come onto a video of a song you don't like and spend hours firing off insults. That disrespects music in itself man. A good fan of music respects all genres.

[TakeApart]

Metal heads usually make laugh because they think that anyone who doesn't sound or look exactly like them is cheap crap and just like everyone else. Ohh the delicious irony in that.

[maldoror2007]

the lady is a cheap poser, dont like to have this shit back in rockmusic.

love pentagram!

[BeauJSimpson]

@mhs10er great movie

[FatFredyFreak]

@mhs10er Alison Mosshart? Jack III? Who are these nobodies? And better yet, who cares?

[BeauJSimpson]

@mhs10er it aint even the same fuckin sport! lol

[LillyCandyCane]

How dare we enjoy a cover! I know the original. Not my favourite song but I like both versions about the same. Now oxygen thieves who don't like the cover, don't freaking listen to it then. Or just don't comment, because you know you will only piss Dead Weather fans off by doing so.

[akakoalaby]

Its like death metal, except with talented musicians.

[DieByTheDrop]

Tune!

[buryyourdead81]

I'd bone the chick on the microphone. Thats really all that matters

[FatFredyFreak]

This would be a decent cover if it was a guy singing. When will women learn to leave metal to the men? I would tell her to grow a pair and then try again. The music is good tho. And before any of you reply with names of metal band with female singer, don't. They ALL suck.

[idobert]

@FatFredyFreak So, you're gay, right?

[FatFredyFreak]

@idobert thats not what your mom said. But seriusly, I didnt say all female singers suck, I said all female metal singers suck, women can sing as long as they do something that they're good at. And it's just my opinion, I'm not etching it in stone or something, IT"S JUST A MESSAGE BOARD PEOPLE, GET A GRIP.

[zeppelindan500]

This is like Black Sabbath's cover of Smoke On The Water. Fans of the original seem to hate it, but the rest of us know that the originals needed MOAR LOUDNESS

[Thedeadraconstripes]

If Jack White was a dictator...id move to that country

[bkrbtlg08]

Finally someone covers Pentagram! Great stuff!

[InKa4484]

I haven't seen the comments but aparently they are here, of people talking shit on this band for covering this song. Yet on the Pentagram video the highest rated comments are ones recommending people check this out. Never heard of this band but i do think Jack White has great talent, especially when it comes to trashy sounding blues. This song is better by Pentagram. That's my opinion.

[mardymonkey94]

pure music at its best...it doesnt get any better than this XD

[IDDQDavid]

Check out the YT video with Solace and Ben from Orange Goblin rehearsing this song.

[her0indragon]

the bass is DRIVING this song straight to the fucking underworld of sexiness. long live the dead weather!

[bloodyslaughterer666]

All hail Bobby Liebling! All hail Jack White and The Dead Weather. I'm huge fan of Pentagram and I think that it's only positive thing that such a big band like Dead Weather does cover one of the Pentagram's best song. Great stuff!

[GRandPavisStalker]

Again with the personal offense when a band covers a song... Seriously! Calm down! It's already been done! They played the song, their way. It's not like they're going to take claim to it and steal it from the other band. They just played it because they liked it. No big deal.

[zkilday]

@GRandPavisStalker Agreed. To have someone love your song so much that they want to record their own version of it is, I believe, the highest form of respect in music. This is especially true if that person is Jack White.

[GRandPavisStalker]

@zkilday

Thank you! I'm glad someone agrees! And Jack White even said he is WAY more comfortable covering songs then actually playing his own songs. Self conscious much... 8P

[themagicdragon1]

Anyone know where to get this song?

[scubathemighty]

@themagicdragon1 you can get a live version from itunes, its on the live at third man records west cd.

[themagicdragon1]

@scubathemighty Thanks, I really wanted to know how to get my hands on this song.

[akavari112]

i love pentagram, but i think the dead weather did a great cover of the song. it sounds darker and meaner then the original

[MarcosAVaca]

p.s. Jack White is one of the most talented people in rock n roll today. The guy has done things you'll never do in your life with music. don't talk shit. give some respect and don't be so ignorant.

[MarcosAVaca]

you guys are fucking ridiculous with your "IVE BEEN LISTENING TO PENTAGRAM SINCE I WAS A FUCKING FETUS MAN! FUCK YOU POSER!"

you guys make me fucking laugh. dead weather covered this song and you dont like it. thats okay, just dont listen to it. go cry to your mom about how the dead weather ruined this song! we are all still gonna listen to this cover with volume turned as high as possible! dead weather are a band that covered a band you live for, respect them for that.

[prkrsmth]

@MarcosAVaca well spoken. i respect true music fans. not just "oh look at me i've heard the original version and i'm so cool! so this cover obviously sucks" people. props man

[brokensoul70]

I think this band is kind of cool, even though they are kind of a "hipster" band. I am a huge fan of fuzzed out rock...

Seeing them do a cover from the legendary Pentagram just made me respect them a whole lot more

[PhoenixRising235]

You should see the video where Jack is making fun of Hipsters because they didn't move during the greenhorne's set. He tells them "may god have mercy on your souls" They're not hipsters 'cause they're hip, that's just how they exist. "I cut like a buffalo" is my new theme song. I wish they would have put THIS on the album though, the original is badass; I hope more Stripes/Rac/QotSA/kills fans listen to pentagram because of this.

[soccerrox234]

what video is that?

[fillzyvoltron]

This Pentagram song is not for female vocal. Realy, it sonds stupid when chick sing its.

[darkmaul1993]

@fillzyvoltron I don't agree, i think it's pretty much their sound, like it or don't ;)

[sickboyduke]

the pentagram singer sounds like a b*tch himself...i think that really fits?

[abominabletreachery]

you don't like Pentagram?

you probably wouldn't like my new tat

[stormmariem]

fuck you dude, Bobby Liebling is more rock n' roll than you will ever be!

[ChildrenOfDoom662]

@stormmariem hell yea man, Bobby is fucking doom meta. that dudes just a faggot, i bet he goes and cries while listen to the Jonas Brothers

[stormmariem]

Bobby is a grandfather's age and is still rocking too, he is a rock n roll god! The rock n' roll life style still hasn't killed him, so god bless him! Bobby Forever!!!

[TheJudgeAndTheThief]

I don't know... I was saying to myself... that I think hard rock stuff will get a revival and will go mainstream... I don't know but with bands like that showing up I hope it will happen... cause i'm fucking sick of that stupid R'n'B Shit :<

[senorcakenice]

Not that Im a fan of jack or any of the band members that play in here. But I am a fan of pentagram and I have to admit this is a sweet cover.

[bradburnz]

Listen to you guys bitching about posers! Jack White can play the guitare and piano like hell. He also composes, edits and is his own technicien... Did I mention the guy is a drummer and a hell of one at that!

He does all of this while singing the shit that he wrote, can you do better? Posers!!!

[Num43]

Yes, but he do all that at once?

[mynameisgodihateyou]

fuck jesus

[Num43]

I think he might not like that...

[bongzilla138]

chalk up another band that ruins this song.

[shoreify]

@kvlltrvles: shut the fuck up! you are talking shit and making a damn fool of yourself.

[kvltrvles]

Shoreify: Get off of Alison's dick and go listen to the real music that she poorly imitates instead.

[shoreify]

um, suck my cock fucker. i've been listening to the music that she is ~influenced~ by forever. you need a life, mate.

[iluvjackwhitemost]

Pure Eargasm

[Terrorwolf]

badass cover !

[kvltrvles]

True Story: I remember Alison (the girl singing for Dead Weather) being a rich kid from Vero Beach Fl (I grew up on the other side of the tracks near there) and she used to front a pop-punk band called Discount. I could never tell if she was snotty or introverted or both, she seemed the former.(cont below)

[kvltrvles]

All I know is that her band wasn't very friendly to metal heads and were super PC and kind of elitist. Fast forward to many years later, I know people can change but I find odd that she is singing a Pentagram song. Also, lets just say I have the inside scoop that the dudes in the real Pentagram don't care for this cover!!

[longgonecourtney]

That little anecdote kinda just made me like her more.

[kvltrvles]

I mean that's cool, I guess if you're into trendy snobby rich rock and roll posers in a put together plastic band. Just know that alot of the music that they claim to worship and are influenced by comes from people that took risks, had very little, were given very little credit or monetary gain and did it because they were compelled to as artists, not because it's "cool".

[redrain07]

lmao posers? First off Allison isn't even the front of the band. Jack White is, if you're calling Jack White a trendy poser who hasn't taken a risk you deserve the idiot of the year award.

[kvltrvles]

Jack White is into some good music and a decent musician, it still doesn't detract from the fact that this band is still poser rock, until you actually know someone in this band personally you have no basis, so think about that while holding your poser of the year award.

[TheJudgeAndTheThief]

and so? cool it's poser rock. I actually like that, I don't want to see some guys coming on stage saying "uh hi... we wrote this song a while ago, we hope you gonna like it... hehehe"

If i would like that I would listen to some pussy music, but that stuff is just straight shit... nothing new, nothing extremly special... just rockin and that's what I want to listen to

[mynameisgodihateyou]

ur a pussy

[kvltrvles]

You obviously are clueless and know nothing regarding the legacy of the band they're covering. BTW Dead Weather is kind of pussy music, fuck this fake and roll, hipster garbage and go listen to some real deal shit like Motorhead!

[TheJudgeAndTheThief]

I like Motörhead alot, but I like this music still. And to repeat for fucking idiots like you, I don't give a fuck if they copy some other bands, if they ain't got any ideas. It sounds good. And that you'll never forget once again: I don't give a FUCK.

[theogeny]

heh, me too

[shredswami]

a cover of the mighty PENTAGRAM?!

Damn, good choice.

[clashboy1977]

her shit singing round what could be a good cover!

[PhoenixRising235]

What's important, is that THIS BAND likes pentagram, and decided to cover one of their tracks.

THIS BAND. THEIR VIDEO. Stop bitching about who's got it the worst, you don't have to be here.

[xxxxNhojxxxx]

*to 20kristian08 * : Yoi know he looks like a woman, but he cuts like a buffalo D;

[20kristian08]

kick jack white in the cunt if i ever see him

[Kenny10]

but they did, what are you going to do about it.....EXACTLY, nothing.

[papercameras]

I'm a longtime Pentagram fan and I gotta say, Dead Weather's version is great. I'm not sure what your point is about not being "worthy." What are you even basing that from?

[saintsaji]

You've probably been a Pentagram fan about as long as Dead Weather's been covering "Forever My Queen"

Their version is GREAT???.....Just like you're a GREAT rock critic!!!

I sure hope Bobby reads your post!

[Cthulhussama]

Relaaaaaaaax

[papercameras]

Been into Pentagram for many years, as a matter of fact, and this is one of my favorite Pentagram songs as well, up there with Walk In The Blue Light and Starlady, and yes, I even dig the Sub-Basement record as well.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go rent Heavy Metal Parking Lot again and see if I can guess which one is you. You were into Pentagram when the 1st record came out of course. I'm guessing you are Graham.

Aren't you glad we didn't start talking about Confessor or St. Vitus?

[saintsaji]

You do probably rent Heavy Metal Parking Lot just to see how cool your MULLET really is!!

I used to talk about St. Vitus at their shows......Waaaaaay Back in the day!!!!

[gobles68]

Shut your noisecunt you elitist douchefag. Go back to listening to Judas Priest and having circle-jerks with your bros.

[saintsaji]

I didn't know you wanted to open up a can of worms.......but I guess you do! First of all I don't Like, Listen, or even care about about Judas Priest or circle-jerks BRO! I listen to PENTAGRAM( the REAL Pentagram not a cover of Pentagram). And next time your second-grade brother comes home from school and calls YOU a Noisecunt or a Douchefag, make sure you keep it to yourself!!! And yes, I'm an elitist RECORD JUNKIE!!!!

[gobles68]

Lol, I win.

[saintsaji]

You're a LOSER not a winner!!!

[gobles68]

More like an cock junkie. You sure love the cock, don't ya.

[saintsaji]

It looks like you showed everyone what you have on your mind.....Do your parents know that you are on youtube? Go back to sleep and come up with something better than that!! I hate to give you the bad news, I'm straight and would never FUCK YOU!

[saintsaji]

By the way......you are on the wrong website if you're looking for COCK LOVERS!!!!

[aocidicoa]

I agree

[christinafrusciante]

My goodness. Watching Jack on drums, pure eye orgasm!

[ashjamie]

amen!

[BADFISH417]

JAM OUT!!!!

[BADFISH417]

JAM OUT!!!!!

[oblavso00]
