Well, this came out of left field... Trivium covering "I don't wanna be me"
and it doesn't suck either.

yeah it's very good.
Just sounds like someone put different vocals over the original song. Not saying it doesn't sound okay, but I'm more of a fan of mixing things up for covers and putting your own spin on it.
Woah yeah that's a great cover. I wonder what this is for?
If something ain't broken, don't fix it. Sometimes It's best just to honor your fellow musicians by doing the song the way it was intended. I find more often, when a band puts their "own spin" on a cover song, it usually ends in a dumpster fire. So, I'm OK with a like for like version rather than royally fucking it up.
A lot of those NIN cover songs belong in the dumpster... Buckcherry's "Head Like a hole" anyone?
Maybe we can hope there's a TON cover album coming out? That would be awesome.
But I have a feeling it was just one of their fav. bands and they're just honoring the late Peter Steele is some way or another.
This was released last year for Black Friday RSD as a Roadrunner Side-by-Side 7” single on translucent green vinyl. Side A contained the original TON version. Not sure why they are promoting it 5 months later though.
I remember back in 2003, not long after Life Is Killing Me came out, people were analysing the song’s lyrics, particularly the “fourteen yellow, six are blue” part. Then an interview came out and Peter was like, “that’s one of the easiest songs I’ve written. There’s no special meaning to the lyrics, I wrote them while doing a crap and they rhymed well” or something to that effect, lol.
So glad this exists:

Apparently there is a big announcement tomorrow at https://shop.runoutgroovevinyl.com/shop.html (it is NOT the Bloody Kisses Reissue, that was announced in March).
Word around the campfire is a repress of the 'None More Negative' box set is being announced tomorrow. That thing goes for well over a thousand in the secondary market.
Thank fuck. I am fucking dying to own October Rust.
Fuck yeah, just pre-ordered!!! $214.73 shipped, beats the hell outta $1500-2500 for the original set!!

Pre order opens: 6/21/19

· Deluxe box set featuring the band’s complete studio albums across (6) double LP sets re-mastered for maximum fidelity!
· The original None More Negative Box was released in 2011 as a Record Store Day exclusive and is extremely expensive and elusive. Only 1000 copies were originally pressed.
· Features the albums “World Coming Down,” and “Life is Killing Me,” both currently unavailable on vinyl, as well as the original and controversial cover art for The Origin of Feces (Not Live At Brighton Beach).
· Features a newly designed and band-approved outer slip case, as well as a fold-out poster, insert with credits and backstage laminate – all exclusive to this set.
· Pressed on band-approved green and black mixed colored vinyl at Record Industry in the Netherlands and comes in (6) heavy weight direct to board gatefold jackets.

I much prefer that slipcase box it comes in compared to the original one.
I want this but man, not sure if I can drop 200.00 on one set, which is still missing the Roadrunner releases.
This is a reissue/reprint of the RSD version minus the 3rd disk, so no bonus tracks. It also comes with a poster that the original RSD version did not have.

I just now noticed that the chick on the Bloody Kisses cover (foreground, bottom right) has a black dot on her tooth.
Cannot unsee.
Does that box set contain the original track listing with 14 songs for Bloody Kisses or the newer track list with the omitted songs,transitions, and interludes?
This will definitely influence my decision to buy it.
According to Run Out Groove, here's the tracklist for the included version:
Side I
1 Machine Screw 0:39
2 Christian Woman 8:57
3 Black No. 1 (Little Miss Scare-All) 11:14
Side J
1 Fay Wray Come Out And Play 1:02
2 Kill All The White People 3:23
3 Summer Breeze 4:49
4 Set Me On Fire 3:29
Side K
1 Dark Side Of The Womb 0:27
2 We Hate Everyone 6:50
3 Bloody Kisses (A Death In The Family)10:55
Side L
1 3.0.I.F 2:05
2 Too Late: Frozen 7:50
3 Blood & Fire 5:32
4 Can’t Lose You 6:05
God I wish footage existed of every video shoot so they could’ve compiled Making Ofs like Rammstein has done for each music video. Especially in the case of I Don’t Wanna Be Me. I can only imagine how much funny B-T-S shit could’ve been (or maybe has been?) recorded from that period. We live in hope.
Does anyone know why the full Christian Woman video is called (Naildriver Version)? Is it referring to Pete being done up like JC in the third act of the song?
Kenny’s new band Silvertomb are releasing their first single on Friday, “Love You
Without No Lies” -

Album comes out in November.
I've been listening to Type O again... does anyone else think Life is Killing Me is underrated? It might be their best album imo
