Here's another adventure of performing Metallica in death metal style, and this time, the chosen song is Battery! This re-arranged version has significant modifications, but the original melodies are still audible and recognizable.

Fresh Deathallica! I missed this project a lot, it's been half a year since '...And Justice for All' album in death metal style, so it was about time for something new! Here's 'Battery' and you can expect (in a couple of weeks) either 'Master of Puppets' or 'Ride The Lightning' full album in death metal style - depends of the poll results! ➢My PATREON page: www.patreon.com/denispauna ➢Streaming services and social media: linktr.ee/denispauna

Just amazing!! 🤘🏼🖤❤️‍🔥

[@Davivd2]

I might have to steal a few of these riffs for myself. 🙂

[@johnsalentine2522]

Excellent work as always! Keep em coming! 👍💪

[@destructo_atx]

Hell yeah!!! Thanks, man!!! Been looking forward to another release, and that's awesome news!!!

[@tikeyjazz]

Ride the lightning pls 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@northnick3317]

I kept thinking to my self "Damn, if Grave did a cover of Battery, it would probably sound like this :v"

[@lsb2623]

This is fucking awesome. Even had a blackened tinge on the vocals. Overall almost a Bolt Thrower vibe.

[@LANGI902]

And that's always a good thing 👌🏼

[@LANGI902]

Have you heard Warkrusher from Montreal? Excellent BT worship!

[@Clareypie]

Right? That was one of my first thoughts, I bloody love Bolt Thrower!

[@Clareypie]

@@LANGI902 I hadn't but I will!

[@2giantmonsters]

Definitely Bolt Thrower.

[@Csetnikke]

Battery but it's a battery of heavy artillery

[@MARGATEorcMAULER]

Nobody's gonna top that comment dude 😂

It's fire power💪💪💪

[@GalizurTheSword]

These Deathtallica covers are awesome!!!

[@DenisPauna]

Thank you so much, glad you love 'em! Expect at least 2 Deathallica albums this year! 💪🏻💪🏻

[@GalizurTheSword]

[@Ubersixth]

Jesus i love it !! Thanks to share bro

[@FrankChevyGmc_from_BE]

I shared your song on Facebook and now I ve gotten a notification from meta that their AI has judged that this clip is against their community rules and is recognized as "violence"

[@DenisPauna]

I've got the same problem when I've shared it on my Facebook page. What to say... it's getting ridiculous. Thanks anyways!

[@FrankChevyGmc_from_BE]

@@DenisPauna I protested it and they accepted, it is no longer considered in violation with their community standards 🤣

[@DenisPauna]

@@FrankChevyGmc_from_BE well, there you go! I'll consider to do that as well haha! 🤘🏻😁

[@KittyToxicity]

Facebook sucks!! I switched to X aka Twitter, you can literally share anything there now! But it is funny that they flagged this for violence, I mean it's heavy but, violent?lol stupid AI 🤣

[@kai7269]

My man gonna get locked up for assault and battery after dropping that banger!

[@S133S]

This has massive UNLEASHED vibes, very "Into Glory Ride" ish. Superb work Denis! instant banger.

[@mechanoid2k]

Fuck thank you I knew I was hearing a familiar type sound very Unleashed-esque.

[@Delimit4tor11]

Master Of Puppets in this style is going to be awesome.

[@watnoudan]

Hey! That drummer can count to 4! How refreshing

[@davidelliott3823]

"Boltthrower have entered the chat" (Seriously, this is great)

[@Clareypie]

Stronglyy agreed, love me some 40K!

[@FreeSeed]

13🎉

[@SuicidalGrind]

People may say Bolt Thrower, but this reminds me way much more of Grave!!

[@elgrigorio]

Agreed

[@k2bny]

This needs to be played as loud as possible EVERYWHERE!

[@stevenscott6337]

….. the love child of Metallica and Six Feet Under…. This is sick!! Really looking forward to hearing Disposable Heroes and Leper Messiah in this style….

[@DenisPauna]

Hell yeah! 🤘🏻🤘🏻 First, I'll do Ride the Lightning album, and I'll try to make it asap, but Master will also be done later this year. 🤘🏻

[@BigHomieSteveTheMetalHead]

​​@@DenisPauna I'm really looking forward to that! I was super disappointed that full Rust In Peace death metal cover lost the poll, I was almost certain it would win but we lost in the end unfortunately. I hope that one day you do decide to do a full album cover of Rust In Peace in this style, it would've been fascinating to see how you would've transformed Mustaine's riffs and those perfect solos throughout the album!

[@SamBrockmann]

Did you just invoke the awfulness that is Six Feet Under? 😂

[@gianmarcobaudazzi9961]

​@@SamBrockmannThey Rules.

[@SamBrockmann]

@@gianmarcobaudazzi9961 , are you sure? 😂🤣

[@renyek_sw]

This gives me Entombed 's Left Hand Path vibes! Well done!

[@poromise]

My thoughts exactly!

[@michaelfortunato3117]

feels like some Bolt Thrower in it, which is a compliment

[@hmart6881]

Dude, I don't know if you have any technical modulation on your vocals, but there are some decent variations on your growls. Respect.

[@DenisPauna]

Huge thanks! There's nothing else except regular vocal plugins. 🤘🏻

[@hmart6881]

@@DenisPauna Absolutely impressive. My favorite version now.

[@nikornla]

I like how the entire song is deconstructed. It sounds freaking awesome.

[@martialbodiestv5041]

This is outstanding! I need the whole Master of Puppets album done like this!

[@tofuxtim]

Wow, this is just lovely... awesome!!👌 Please do Fade to black aswell. Your renditions will have a regular spot on Dutch radio 😁

[@farmonious420]

Battery is my Fav Metallice song. You definately Mastered it. Keep the sick tunes coming. Stay Happy and Healthy

[@playdiscgolf1546]

I thought we might be hearing a new Bolt Thrower song at first. Haha, one can dream

[@skyline2601]

My man, listen to Memoriam, it's basically Bolt Thrower 2.0, with Karl Willetts as the vocalist. They keep denying that it's BT 2.0 but we all know it is.

[@neverman3398]

I think that you really need to consider getting a band together and tour. I would definitely go and see that.

[@thebutcher7919]

Amazing cover! This is the old school quality death metal that I miss these days.

[@DenisPauna]

Huge thanks! Today afternoon you'll hear another one! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@bl00dsh3d]

i NEED this on spotify. this fucking kicks ass dude 🤘🔥

[@DenisPauna]

It will be there tomorrow, around 2PM EST 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@rajurajesh6716]

❤❤❤ Fucking awesome! Love the growly voice! Love Metallica to death, never expected your cover to surpass that.. modifications et al!

[@lilgosho9944]

Only missing the acoustic intro. Great cover dude, delivering like always!

[@ericcartmansstrengthandpow5960]

This is DM, brah. Ain't nobody got time for acoustic intros.

1.25x Speed brings the song to another level...specially the Drum & Bass Amazing work 🤘

[@breathingnewlife]

Holy f”cking wow! Nailed it! This is brutal!

[@kocurfan7099]

OH HELL YEAH BROTHER!! Both thumbs and some toes up as well. Absolutely loved this!

[@JulianEmdon]

This is freaking awesome, I can't stop listening to it 🤘

[@SecondaryHomunculus]

Holy shit, dude, your stuff just keeps getting better. I grew up on the Big 4 of 1980s thrash, and I was WAY fucking wrong all these years thinking they couldn't get better. 🤘🤘

[@zinAab79]

I love how you really turned this song into death metal. Most death metal versions of Metallica are literally the same song but faster with lower tuning and harsh vocals.

[@Unitron2112]

This was incredible! I love what you did with the classical riff, did you switch it to Phyrgian mode? Had that middle-eastern vibe, and reminded me of the band Melechesh. Then breaking into that whiplash creating groove, perfection! Love the contrast between that and the slow monstrous grooves, and the solos were beautiful. The whammy hit right before they started is a cool unique touch! I'll love a death metal Lightning too, but I made the right vote for Master with this banger to go by 🤘

[@mozart0101]

That is what battery should Sound !!! Love it!!!!

[@scotwoolery6844]

Thank you for making a legend of a song so much better same yet so different I love this

[@Fkod88]

Great version, very creative, very different. Loved the melodic part and solo, man, that was brilliant! Also an unexpected super benefit I got out of watching: I finally realised where I should put and fix the bloody whammy bar to be able to use it easily both ways without it getting in the way of playing. Thanks a lot for that, quite a discovery after 25 years of playing guitar 😂

[@welcometothejungle3222]

That was fucking sick, bro! 🤘

[@m2pmd70]

Nice! Caught some Bolt Thrower vibes in there. 🤘

[@Ezper-2099]

This is gonna be my gate way into pure Death Metal, hell yeah 🤘

[@dan.miller35]

oooohh. That groove @ 1:27. Perfect

[@chris_2714]

For me it's the lyrics. Sounds so much more sinister with this version. Awesome job 🤘
