Evil Metal Covers (75 Discs)

Ok folks, as you may have noticed I have been absent from Angrychairs recently. This is due in part to work dominating my life, but also to this mega-mega-post I had planned. It took me days to get all the albums, and days more to organize them all with correct titles and bands, but I have done it! 75 albums of nothing but metal covers! But I cannot take all the credit, someone somewhere complied these albums - under the moniker of Evil Ultimate Metal Covers - and for that I am immensely grateful.

These 75 discs are filled with bands from all metal genres covering songs from classic metal bands, and several un-metal bands, now with a metal twist. I already had a bunch of these covers (nowhere close to the 1240 tracks in this collection), so I'm sure many of these will be repeats for some of you out there. I have never heard of a lot of the songs being covered, and even less of the bands covering these songs, but I am intrigued with the entire thing.

There is no real album artwork for these albums (being unofficial compilations), but if you google 'Evil Ultimate Metal Covers' you can find different sites with different album artwork created. Some of it is kind of neat.

Enjoy!

As an ending note, there are a lot of links here (of course) which ups the possibility that a couple of the links got crossed. So keep me informed to any mis-linked stuff.

Anneke Van Giersbergen & Danny Cavanagh - In Parallel

Anneke van Giersbergen (ex the-Gathering, Agua de Annique) and Danny Cavanagh (Anathema) regularly work together. In the Netherlands they have done a couple of shows together in 2008 and 2009.
There is an album from those shows, named ‘’In Parallel’‘. It's acoustic, and it's fucking awesome.

It's an acoustic set by the critically aclaimed duet that are kicking the shit out of europe with their beautiful shows.

It's a pretty sought after album as it was made available only at 3 shows ever. And so you should grab this gem whilst you can. Amazing!
