How could someone dislike this? This is a song of calm, determined dignity in the face of possible death or the dealing of it out to the attacker. Darn cool stuff. We need more of it.

Better than the original.

Fabulous sound, except I'm missing that potent descending bass on the original that totally blew me away. That bass was totally magic. Everything else in your version is fantastic.

A remarkably authentic interpretation of the epic classic. And if you don't like it, then we clearly have differing tastes in music.

Fuckin-fuckin great...
-
good cover ^^

@HaldirOfLorien I don't like this vocalist.He sings in pitch but the tone sounds shitty.
-
This is really great! A very epic feel. I would even go so far as to say I prefer this cover to Tull's original.
-
One of my favourite JT songs covered by one of my favourite metal bands - and a very good cover at that - some metal covers tend to insult the original (not ALWAYS a bad thing) but this is a pretty faithful interpretation.
I like it :)

@flyingspagetti No, it's just that Europeans - or, at least, ones like you - are looking for people you can label ignorant so you can feel better about . . . what? yourself maybe?

@broadswordbeast Yes, Detective O. B. Vious, I know this. My comment had nothing whatsoever to do with who or who didn't write this. Not that what I know is of any importance. . . what matters is that decades later this song is still remembered, still rocks, and makes a damn compelling, stronghearted tune . . . especially with a rendition this masterful.

sorry you have a great voice but you're not Jethro, so my advice is move on and do your own music and let's see who you can be. My guess is you can be fantistic all on your own.

@187ciFTW They've already done that, genius. Have you not bothered to listen to their original songs? They pretty much created a whole new genre of metal. This is JUST A COVER. Jesus. Never did they try to be Jethro. My advice is listen to their other stuff (ex., the rest of this album and the previous ones) and stfu.
