I have his pick used at the West palm beach amp theater on the Justice tour on this song its string cuts into the plastic are fxxkin deep.. He fueled them like a supercharger...
It was written in the sky that there was gonna be fucking war in the comments. Slipknot fans vs metallica fans. I personally love both bands, and think they made a pretty good job on the cover. They kept the original feel of the song while Corey addeed his own little touch. Stop the hate guys. Don't like it, don't listen to it, is all. Both bands are composed of great respectable artists that contributed way more than their share to the world of music. Let's thank em both and make sure their music live on!
Sephyr ArtCore same here, i have seen two bands live and that is Slipknot and Metallica, i love both of them. ass someone said to me, they are my Justin Bieber.
Sephyr ArtCore Glad someone finally fucking said it. Both bands are legendary in my opinion. Metallica was amazing back then. Slipknot is amazing now, and so is Stone Sour. [IMO]. Not a lot of people will agree with that Stone Sour bit, but they've always had increasingly good potential and sound quality. But let's face it. Corey Taylor is a good artist, author, and, well, an okay actor. He's a talented person, that much is undeniable. One of the greatest that's come a long in years. We're lucky to have him as one of the main inspirations to all of the rock/metal music out there.
Holy shit, what a great cover! This was unexpected. Many people throw shit at Slipknot or Stone Sour, but seriously, Corey is a talented singer, you have to admit it wether you like the bands or not.
that's why I love Disturbed and their covers. They're pretty good with their covers and of course people praised them for inputting a new addition to their classics
Lockslie That's one opinion but some covers don't do this carbon copy, more polished, approach and have also easily outshone the originals: Hurt by Johnny Cash, Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley, Man Who Sold The World by Nirvana, Sonic Reducer from Hard Core Logo, So What by Metallica, Blitzkrieg by Metallica, Stone Cold Crazy by Metallica... See what did there?
Thank you, a cover that tries to be better than the original often is much worse. It's covers like these, ones meant to emphasize how good the original was, that are good. Like Trivium's cover of Master, or BFMV's cover of Sanitarium.
+Tom Flake because he's not in this band, pretty sure he was dead at the time too. I don't pay attention to stone sour or slipknot but I can make that assumption
+Termo VOLTAGE Gotcha. I just know Corey Taylor and Paul Gray were in Slipknot together. My comment had nothing to do with Stone Sour but the people in the band.
Missing the "MOTHERFUCKER" from the end of the "Die" breakdown. 0/10 Would not listen again. (Kidding, the cover's fantastic....but Jason made it essential).
+ITRIPPEDOVERTHELIVEFANTASTICANDITHURT Yeah, I'm aware. But I'm talking specifically about Jason's backing vocals regardless of who played in the band first or played the bass better.
+Mikhail Kruhlenko Saw them about half a dozen times with Jason and about half a dozen times without. Always a great show, but it hasn't been the same since he left.
bb948555 That would be amazing in my opinion if they made it their own and really bring the raw emotion out of it. Some covers I've heard just rips any and all emotion out of it and we basically get a plastic cover with no heart in it, I won't name any particular band because I rather not get 200+ replies of people raging that I don't like their favorite bands cover or original song and I'd rather not deal with, "O! Thy did it btter thn Stne Sur!!! Thy wre mre brutool!!!" when the song doesn't call for brutality but raw emotion. If you want to hear an example of what I'm talking about just listen to some of the tribute albums that only have generic post-hardcore and metalcore bands on it, not hating on those genres because I actually like those styles. I wouldn't mind metalcore bands if they used bands that actually put heart into the music instead of one of the bands that labels throw out without even checking to make sure they know more than, "Chug, chug, chug! (generic breakdown) Chug, chug, chug!" followed with lyrics you can tell were manufactured by the label to sell. Just my two cents.Have a great day/night and rock on! \m/
@@demonguysayshi2666 Without a doubt he is better, Corey is a technically gifted singer and has worked hard to be one of the best and most versatile vocalists in the business. James is unique and good vocalist, I wouldn't put him in the same category as Corey, as they both have different aims in vocals, but James suits the tone of Metallica more, whereas Corey has too much projection for that tone, he needs the low-end that Metallica doesn't really have to stand out, otherwise it sounds off.
Jimmy The Clown sorry but i have to say that’s not true, the greatest by far is serj tankian, even though he lost his awesome vocals or he doesn’t want to sing metal anymore!
Knives. Yes that’s almost true but his voice can get a little annoying time after time (IMO) and the fact that he isn’t gonna stick to the genre that made him popular is why I think Corey Taylor is better :/
No, it wasn't meant like that, Creeping Death is actually my favorite Metallica song... I just meant that some singers / bands out there don't always do a good job on covering classics, but Corey does things like that amazingly ;)
MaggotChrisReloaded there is no other vocalist that has the talent that Corey has, his voice in both Slipknot and Stone Sour is incredible, Corey is a legend
tuulenkoti to be honest..you're the one acting childish here you start to insult someone simply for having a different opinion than you AND THAT'S childish AF
This is an epic cover album. Corey can sing to any music whether it's Awesome covers, original Stone Sour music or Slipnot... They all KICK MAJOR ASS!!!!
jim van de velde He doesn't hit very high notes, but then, neither again can I. And I am not saying you need it to be good. Corey IS a great singer! Have you heard the cover of Rainbow In The Dark (Dio)
Amazing cover, and very respectful to the original. It´s clear that the Stone Sour members are big Metallica fans. Also, I have to admit that Corey impresses me everytime I listen to his vocals. He can sing powerful as this cover, growl or deliver mellow vocals in amazing ballads. He´s a beast of a singer.
My speaker......it just won't go any louder!!!! Dammit!!! This shit is awesome! Blew my mind. And for you critics on here, this is the original pace of the song. This is the definition of a perfect cover. Good job Corey
Well it's not faster live really is it? Considering one of the most famous live versions in Moscow is over a minute longer than the original, but you ignorant fanboys wouldn't know that would you?
+Piss 'n Vinegar Not really. Metallica is still pretty solid. Not as good as they were back in the 80's and early 90's, but Death Magnetic was pretty good, along with their newer songs.
True brother...Hetfield hits the note of high B while singing;here as you see;Corey is suffering up to high A flat;which is so poor...I just do not understand why Corey embarasses himself this way...Also there are mistakes in riffs and solos as well...Listen carefully;the last lead part of harmonic minor gets late!!!What a shame for a band!!!
Fk The 'tallica haters, really. You try to rock half as hard as they can for as long as they can, it takes a toll. The new album is solid. Death Magnetic was too. St. Anger was, well it had a few good songs. Load and Reload are some of my favs. And Justice will always be my favorite though as I believe at last count I had bought 10 cassettes and 5 cds to keep it in my collection. Sound track of my teen years :D I absolutely think Corey Taylor is the best metal vocalist in the last 20 years, but NO ONE, BIGGER NO ONE, can make a classic Metallica song better. This is a damn good cover yes, but not BETTER, but on level with original.
Mind blowin' cover. Stone Sour definitely honored the Metal Gods of old and at the top of the Pantheon.H ave listened to it 4 times in a row. Rock on Stone Sour.🤘🤘🤘
Great job on this one! Sorry, i've never been a fan of you guys - probably because i'm old lol - BUT I do have a new respect for you guys after hearing this almost perfectly note for note cover. Well done.
Why are some comments talking abut Jason's part in this song? He wasn't in the band 'til AJFA. 'Cause ya know, Cliff died after Master of Puppets. Unless they're talking about a live thing. Then I don't know since I only listen to the albums.
+Apollo Blackblood they are refereing to the fact that Jason added alot to this song live. doesnt matter that cliff was the better more talented bass player and writer because jason was amazing and badass live
How in gods name have a never heard this until now?! This is fantastic. The production value alone is superb! And Corey’s singing does it justice. Man this is great. The guitar and drums are both super on point to the original as well. And the base...Jesus, it’s prominence makes me salivate! Very well done by the stone sour boys
Eh, the vocals here are better than James' on the original '84 recording, but that's about it. And whilst this is good, it doesn't touch Metallica's live performances of the songs.
I'd like to hear a cover of Pantera's song Walk. And another song that Metallica did a Cover of songs title is Am I Evil. That would be really fucking nice.
Fuck Walk. Pantera has a lot of amazing songs that are way better than walk and still, the only song other bands cover from Pantera is walk... how about domination or cemetery gates?
