Thank you. I actually searched for that thread before posting mine... I searched "cover songs" not "remake"... little things make all the difference I guess!

Err.... it's not.

Once upon a time, I used to collect Metallica B-sides, rare tracks, and cover albums. Bought a lot of $30 imports while collecting, had maybe 30-40 CDs.

Best cover of Whiplash in my considered opinion is Crematorium's. But even that isn't as good as the original. Especially when led into by Pulling Teeth, which is as it should be.

If you're a fan of Social Distortion's version of Ring of Fire, Mike Ness (the lead singer of Social Distortion) did a solo album call "Under The Influences" that is all cover songs. It's not as hard as Social D, but it's still really good. Here one of the songs on youtube.

Raspberry Beret--Hindu Love Gods (Warren Zevon & REM without Michael Stipe).

One Toke Over The Line--Rainmakers

Jump (Van Halen)--Aztec Camera (long LP version)

Pressure Drop--The Specials

Stuck In The Middle With You--Jeff Healey

Hold On, I'm Comin--BB King/Eric Clapton (last 1/2 of this is EPIC).

Superstition--SRV

Purple Haze--The Cure

Route 66--Depeche Mode

Rockin The Free World--The Alarm

Less than Jake - Surrender (Cheap Trick)

Spiderbait - Black Betty

Thank you for doing so. I'm not much of a Godsmack fan to begin with, but that was good stuff.

Speaking of leaving stuff here...

Ball Of Confusion by either Love and Rockets, or Anthrax - take your pick. Or include them both.

Darling Nikki by the Foo Fighters

How about anything covered by Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs.
Here is a sample. Not because this is the best one but rather this one does a nice job of featuring Susanna.
