Metal Covers

This is just a list, not exactly an article, but it is interesting to see that, in many cases, the Metal cover added to the song. I will start with my favourite, but the list is long and worth checking. Also, you may realize that you didn’t know a particular song was a cover or that a certain band covered another band. We start with Metal covering pop and other styles and then Metal covering Metal.
