Mashups & Covers

Watch ALICE IN CHAINS, ANTHRAX & MASTODON Members Cover SOUNDGARDEN's "Rusty Cage"

William DuVall absolutely kills it.

Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante has recruited Alice in Chains vocalist William DuVall, Mastodon guitarist Bill Kelliher, and Metal Allegiance bassist Mark Menghi for his latest cover. The drummer and his all-star band have done one hell of a rendition of Soundgarden's "Rusty Cage", which I think warrants a specifical mention DuVall and his insane performance.

"Rusty Cage…first song off of Badmotorfinger and a Damn Good one at that!" said Benante in the cover's description on YouTube. "This song makes me wanna drive fast. I was a @soundgarden fan as soon as I heard 'hunted down'. I then heard the FOPP ep on which they had covered an @ohioplayers song (Honey was a great Album) and I was Hooked. I saw them numerous times from 1988-89 to playing festivals with them a few years ago.

"I always thought they had 'it': they were tight but loose,up and down,in and out of tune, heavy and soft, always unique. I always loved the way @Chriscornellofficial sang, His voice was so Recognizable. I saw them at the Armory in New York and he came out and did an acapella version of Beth by @kissonline , I got goosebumps. We are celebrating the music they created with this version of Rusty Cage.

"When @billy_butterslax , @markmenghi, @williamduvallofficial and I decided to Jam this one out it was because it moved us when we first heard it and dammit, it still does! Hope you all enjoy it and Take the time to think what Good Music does to your soul. Thank you to @dlevanchuk and @tom.w.tapley . Love to #kimthayil #mattcameron #benshepherd .
