HOLY SHIT!!!! I knew from the teaser video a few days ago that this was going to be something special. But, NOTHING could prepare us for the blisteringly EPIC results we just heard and saw!!!! Sure, several other bands have covered this song with some really amazing versions. THIS is by far the greatest among them so far! His metal sensibilities and musical instincts are on full display here. The video production is also LEAPS AND BOUNDS beyond what we've come to expect from Skar Productions. I'm going to be listening to this version for WEEKS!!!! It's simply infectious, addictive, in short.... PERFECT!!!!

Skar, I've loved your music for many years, and this song is just as epic and amazing as your other covers. But I gotta say, MAJOR kudos for the strobe warning at the beginning of the video. I've had seizures before and sometimes get migraines if I stumble across an unexpected strobe effect in videos, which 90% of people do not tag or warn for in any way. It makes me so happy whenever someone is considerate enough to give forewarning for this. Thank you. :)
