Freya already butchered War Pigs, don’t need to hear another shitty metalcore band ruin the classic yet again.
fyi
misery signals covering pink floyd, straight up chron
so, to any of you video game blogger assholes who kept asking “what does DEP have to do with this game?”, there you go.
thanks wook, now I only have to figure out what time this would be in Germany
I’m on the east coast and it’s 10 after 2 and the site still not working.

It worked for me. Unfortunately you have to try it numerous times due to the amount of traffic to the site. Dillinger is the only band I give a fuck about. And as a huge Dylan fan, I’m intrested in seeing how band Arsonist ruin Masters of War.
AiLD doing a Slayer song? This might be my worst day alive.
Grabbing it to check out Periphery’s take on One.
The Periphery cover is amazing IMO.
hahaaahaa @The Acacia Strain being a shitty metalcore band. And yes, Periphery is amazing.
I love The Acacia Sstrain, but was not all that impressed with their contribution.
This entire thing is a fucking joke. Horrible.
