Didn't know you were handling duties in KFH, Ian? That's cool (I hope?).

Here's a killer cover I'd forgotten: The Hives, off their Barely Legal EP, doing the Raunch Hands' Black Jack.

Death covering Pain Killer on The Sound of Perserverance is pretty fucking awesome.

I'm adding Death's cover of Judas Priest's Painkiller to the mix. It's pretty fantastic.

You gonna mention this cover again next month?

I might. We'll have to wait and see.

The Groovie Ghoulies do a good job with Neil Diamond's Hello Again and Billy Bragg's New England. And they do a good cover of 2000 Man too.

The Groovie Ghoulies the 70s cartoon?

No, the band.

Oh. I got excited there for a moment.

Bananarama's cover of the Sex Pistol's "No Feelings" is hella rad.

Nice. I give that an A+.

One of my all time favorite covers is Entombed doing Roky's Night Of The Vampire. They usually did a swell job on anything they covered, the Jerry's Kids tune Lost is another great one.

I have to brag about this once in a while, but I actually have a bashed up to fuck drum cymbal that Richard Christy used on the Sound of Perseverance tour signed by Christy. I got it at a benefit for Chuck at the Brass Mug for Tampa in Oct. 2001, right before he died.

But yeah, that cover of Painkiller is freaking sweet.

I found a really awesome cover of Radiohead doing Wish you Were Here the other week on youtube.
