I like older NIN and I will fess up that I kind of dig AFI -- I'm not feeling this cover at all.

it's really not as bad as most of you are making it out to be.
it's a pretty decent cover.
I think too many of you are just nin fanboys to look at it in a good light (no offense).

Not really -- I really liked Sing the Sorrow because it was a lot less cartoony than their earlier stuff. I really hope this cover isn't a hint of the direction that they're going in.

being both an AFI and NIN fan i perhaps am too open minded on this...but i think its pretty decent...the only problem with it really is that it isnt different enough, so i think we are all listening and going ohh this sounds nothing like trent, and i think maybe if they had added enough of their own style and influences then maybe people wouldnt be so upset with it. Like when Johnny Cash covered Hurt, it was different enough that you didnt really listen to it as a old NIN song but as something new.



Exactly, I feel the same way. I honestly didn't think that many people would diss it. It's a good cover. Supposedly even better then some other "Head Like a Hole" covers, and if it's true that this mp3 is just a demo version, then it might be even better. Atleast that's how I feel about the track.

I don't hate it at all. It does sound like an unfinished version.

I don't have a particular like/dislike for either of these bands...they're just there...but I do have a rather large distaste for the sound of this cover...Pardon me while I lose 30 lbs.

I don't think it's really that bad, and it definitely sounds like an early/unmastered version. I think the bass sounds really cool.

i don't like the singing....trent's emotion is so much more on the surface.

Nope. It's worse. If this is just an "unfinished version," they need to just scrap it and start over. Or better yet just forget about it completely. I'm just hoping the PC version of GTA:San Andreas again has the option to create your own radio playlist.

And yes, I'm a pretty big NIN fan, but that doesn't mean anything - I think Devo's cover of the same song is brilliant.

I still have hope for the boys...sorta....
