A few days ago, Metal Hammer announced they would be releasing a new compilation of bands covering other bands called Decades Of Destruction along with the new issue of their magazine.
The most talked about covers are Korn doing Faith No More's "We Care A Lot" and Asking Alexandria covering Slipknot's "Before I Forget." Here's the full tracklisting:
- Korn – “We Care A Lot” (Faith No More cover)
- Asking Alexandria – “Duality” (Slipknot cover)
- Devin Townsend – “Fast As A Shark” (Accept cover) (feat. Wolf Hoffmann of Accept and Fredrik Thordendal of Meshuggah)
- New Years Day – “mOBSCENE” (Marilyn Manson cover)
- Sabaton – “Kingdom Come” (Manowar)
- Katatonia – “Night Comes Down” (Judas Priest cover)
- Cane Hill – “We Die Young” (Alice In Chains cover)
- Hacktivist – “Break Stuff” (Limp Bizkit cover)
- Wilson – “Sleep Now In The Fire” (Rage Against The Machine cover)
- The Qemists – “Blind” (Korn cover)
- Employed – “Memphis Will Be Laid To Waste” (Norma Jean cover)
- Counting Days – “Disciple” (Slayer cover)
- Stoneghost – “I Disappear” (Metallica cover)
- Mammoth Weed Wizard Bastard – “Scum” (Napalm Death cover)
- No Consequence – “The Pot” (Tool cover)
Wow, so much to digest here. I don't know who Stoneghost is but I can't believe of all the Metallica songs to cover, they decided to do "I Disappear." Also, that Devy cover with Fredrik from Meshuggah sounds like a lot of fun.
Today, Metal Hammer posted 30 second samples of each of the tracks. You have hear them in the playlist below:
