    Default Killswitch meets Dio

    Has anyone else heard Killswitch Engage's cover of Dio's Holy Diver? Bad ass. Not as good as the original, but it's still pretty good. Anyone else think so?

    I never heard the original, but I didn't care for the cover.

    I love their other songs though.

    I think it's amazing.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    This song kicks all sorts of ass. I actually prefer it to the original.

    Go Killswitch!

    Like most KS:E songs it took a nose dive when they started screaming as oppose to singing. Apart from that very cool, the dual-guitars are probably the best part, even if they don't follow the original tune.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    Yeah, Killswitch should really stop screaming.

    I hate Killswitch, so I couldn't much "appreciate" what they did to Dio

    I couldn't stand Dio and i'm not keen on Killswitch so i think i'll give it a miss.

    Anyone seen the video to the song? Clearly a parody of the original video. I guess it was Adam Dutkiewicz's idea, since he's the clown of the band.

    Anyway, I think KsE's version is bad-ass.

    Killswitch = bad.
    Sorry, I have no idea who this other artist is either.

    It reminds me of a time where I got a free cd of Killswitch and I sold it to someone for 10 bucks.

    Good times.
