Great, great stuff.

from_musings

everyone thinks it's great, but no one really explains says why it's a good cover. besides that he sings well (something chino also does) what else do the bad rabbits
add to the song? do they bring something new to it? someday i would like to know :)

I fully agree that covers should be a new interpretation, its kinda pointless for the original version to exist if you just copy n paste.
I think as long as you really are into the song and you feel youve got a new way of performing it then its as important as the original.  Thats why the tones covers are always so good.  

i agree, they're a rock band but often pick a pop song and paint it with deftones colors.which means something new is born.Can't say that something new is born in the bad rabbits cover.Deftones don't try to sound like the band they cover, they run the song through their hearts and make something new and special in a deftones way.
That's why I can't say this is great cover just because it sounds great

You're such a bug, you know that ? I like how deep you go in your arguments and shit but sometimes, it's just too much. Yes, they bring something new to the song. It sounds more like it's one of these old r'n'b love songs, it definitely has a new style when played like that.

Yeah, man, one of the best bootlegs, definitely.


So, I had this incomplete shot of Battle-axe at Super Bock 2006 from Nuno, and there was another incomplete one floating on youtube, so I mixed them to make a complete version and I put the FM broadcast over it to make it sound " pro ", even though the broadcast wasn't the best either. So now, we have another complete live video of Battle-axe !

agreed. although it stays true to the original, bad rabbits brings a soulful touch to the song

before you go off lets not forget Deftones cover of Drive Like Jehu, or there cover of Sinatra by Helmet. There both equally similar to the originals as this cover of sextape is

Thanks,now we're getting somewhere  :) i haven't heard but will listen again.

edit- after a new listen: whatever small adjustments they added, I don't consider it enough reason to be recorded again.

once they choose to release a cover on album, it's mostly pop songs they like to transform like chauffeur, to have and to hold, no ordinary love, if only tonight we could sleep and so on, music from a different genre that they choose to treat, adding heavier guitars or adding a heavier ending like in chauffeur . you mentioned Drive like jehu, but ignores the other two covers from that release with cardigans and japan which they do in a deftonish way. the sinatra song is basically the same, just a bit faster and more alert with a bit more attitude in the rhythmic singing. although it's slightly different I agree that it isn't different enough to be interesting as a cover. also not representative of their choices in general of the covers they choose to record on disc. of course one can stare oneself blind on the exceptions but that will lead you nowhere

Battle-Axe sounds huge! (despite the wishy washyness)

Nice one.

I could have used another audio source, I just decided to use that one. Glad that you like it anyway.
