Incredibly excited, just with Corey Taylor didn't have anything to do with this

^hah, completely agree about Corey Taylor.. hate that guy


this should be... interesting. will probably be a mixed bag. Tenacious D cut will rock for sure

Ugh, I can't stand Killswitch Engage's cover of Holy Diver.

That fuck is going to ruin Rainbow in the Dark.

the money is going to a good cause at least.. could be worse

"“Holy Diver” – Killswitch Engage"

Confirmed for ruined song

" “Ronnie Rising Medley (featuring “A Light in the Black”, “Tarot Woman”, “Stargazer”, “Kill the King”)”– Metallica"

Omg why

I played the fuck out of KSE's Holy Diver in 06/07, you guys are just being tools because it's a pretty fun cover.

yeah i really like KSE's cover. the video is fun too



but seriously what is it with Metallica and medleys? just play an entire damn song

Was excited to see who got Holy Diver but it's that fucking Killswitch cover again ugh.

yep, shoulda had somebody new cover it.


would've loved to see Heaven and Hell get a cover, but oh well

Pumped as fuck for Motorhead doing Starstruck.

any chance that holy diver cover is re-recorded bc of vocalist

not that i mind the cover (why are u guys shitting on it we all agreed like 3 years ago that it was pree cool)

pree cool is disappointing if you consider the fact that the original is a legendary heavy metal song

and?

"any chance that holy diver cover is re-recorded bc of vocalist"

Right? At least change it up a little bit.

Um actually Corey Taylor is in this...

My moms bf plays drums on the doro track m/

Leave it to Metallica to hog 4 of Rainbow's best songs. Sadly missing Gates of Babylon and Heaven and Hell. Should be interesting anyways.

Hey that Killswitch cover is badass. Just because they play metalcore doesnt mean they didnt do the song justice.

Tenacious D cut will rock for sure [2]

that and the Anthrax track

"yep, shoulda had somebody new cover it."

Eagles of Death Metal

the king is gone but not forgotten

I'm looking forward to Corey's cover, he's got a damn good voice

Yeah Corey isn't bad by any means but just out of principle I don't think he should partake in this.

What principle? That he was a singer for a very popular metal band?

KSE's "Holy Diver" is terrible and Corey Taylor is bound to ruin "Rainbow In The Dark"

Jesus Christ. James Hetfield singing Stargazer is something I never want to hear.

Instrumentally speaking, Metallica might be interesting, but James voice... and even though I don't like Motorhead, I think Starstruck will be perfect for them, as well as The Temple of the King for Scorpions

"James Hetfield singing Stargazer is something I never want to hear."

Few singers could do Stargazer like Dio...Roy Khan and Nils Patrik Johansson (Astral Doors) are the only ones that come to mind.

duurrrrr no band/person is worthy of covering X song


get the fuck over it


I hope none of you sing along to Dio

Surprised no one is excited to see what Glenn Hughes does, also no heaven and hell from coheed?

Hughes would've been great for a heavy Rainbow track, don't know if a ballad will suit him

one of the worst album artworks I have ever seen

Tribute albums with good artwork do exist?

good point

where's Tony Iommi and Ozzy

out of principle

I like Corey Taylor just fine. The bands he's in...different story.

And Satchel is on this...well that's awesome.

Tenacious D are going to rock... Also, Scorpions got a song that really maches their style...

Oh yeah The D make me cream my jeans.

as expected, Cory Taylor's track sucks.
