^^Rules 2 songs per band but not for the same record^^

The real merit of covering a song is that it has to sound so good that everyone thinks it’s own creation.
Some people say that some covers are…
1. Voivod - The Outer Limits
2. Pantera - Far Beyond Driven
3. Motörhead - Motörhead
4. Metallica - The $5.98 EP - Garage Days Re-Revisited
5. Judas Priest - Sin After Sin

2. Amorphis - Far From The Sun
3. Annihilator - Set The World On Fire
