OFF: Favorite Twisted Covers

[Andy Gilham]

Jorn Zorn and Naked City's version of "A Shot in the Dark" is simply
awesome - a firestorm of sax and guitars which eventually organises itself
into a heavy-duty version of that familiar Henry Mancini magic.

For bizarre laffs, though, gotta hand it to Type O Negative's massacre of
"Summer Breeze".  (Their "Cinnamon Girl" didn't quite do it for me, though.)

Close to home, Sepultura's ridiculously guttural version of Motorhead's
"Orgasmatron".

And Hijokaidan's white-noise-feedback-frenzy version of "Silver Machine" is
one of the best around...
