Mendeed do well to make a song about all sorts of fantasy stuff as boring as hell, the worst track on the album, it suffers from a terrible chorus and verses.

As the original was pretty poor I"ll admit this is and improvement but still not the awe-inspiring track it is supposed to be. The quality of the guitar from Matt Heafy and co is good but the vocals are uninspiring and bland. This version merely benefits from the modern sound quality. This song has had it"s detractors and I"m afraid that I"m one of them. The guitar work is good on the main riff and great for the interlude. The galloping riff complements the verse and fast paced drums. Good Luck, you won"t regret it.Īs incendiary now as it was 20 years ago, this version by Machine Head benefits from Rob Flynn"s vocal style as opposed to James Hetfield who I felt just didn"t cut it vocally till The Black Album. Try and find it as it isn"t on proper release (I recommend ebay).

The original sounds dated now but this is all about updating the tracks and giving them more relevance to a new generation of metal heads. A collection of tracks by rising stars and one slightly older, that attempt to do justice to one of the most widely loved metal albums of all time.
