Smashing Pumpkins - Bullet with Butterfly Wings - Cover by Halocene

[@RyanMercer]

I aboslutely love this cover.

[@kakarocks317]

Love having you back on form again. Smashing out these incredible covers as usual. Great visuals on the video too!

[@Halocene]

The grind is grindin. Thanks Kaka!

[@titaniumwhale]

Let's go!!! Another amazing cover!!! LOVE THE BEARD BRAD!! 🤘🏼🖤❤️

[@Halocene]

Thanks so much! Brad appreciates it :)

[@bflandragon90]

I almost didn't recognize Brad with glasses

[@Totenglocke42]

I legit didn't recognize him with the new look. I had to come to the comments because I was wondering why he wasn't playing guitar on this one. 😂

[@andrewfidel2220]

The videography on this is awesome, love the playing with color, saturation, distortion, and slightly longer takes.

[@ClumberSpaniels]

Outstanding! I love your vocal take on this song, and Brad's guitar interpretation make this a Halocene song now.

[@Halocene]

Haha thank you! We try and make it ours

[@MikeEvans94]

Get this cover straight into my veins! Great job, guys! Much love!

[@Halocene]

lol maybe don't? thanks mike

[@QuintonKufahl]

Great to be rippin’ these covers with you both again!

[@Halocene]

Thanks for your hard work!

[@EWSentinel]

Look at you Addie, with your screamo-self :)

[@benscott9367]

The Smashing Pumpkins were such a HUGE part of my teenage years and in my opinion were always super underrated for what they contributed to alternative rock at the time. So a few things on this cover.. first BRAVO. I love how Halocene always finds a way to stay true to the original while also putting their unique stamp on these songs. My only constructive is I wish the bass guitar was a little bit more up in the mix. But as always you guys KILLED it and the drummer was top form as well. This may be a big ask, but "Bodies" by Smashing Pumpkins is one of my favorite songs of all time, would love it if Halocene tackled that song. In any case, thanks again for a killer cover tune to come home from work and rock out. You guys are the best!

[@Halocene]

Thank you so much! We will check that out!

[@QuintonKufahl]

Thanks!

[@FSBMystic]

Wow, Addie's screams 😍

[@scarletspeedster6496]

Absolutely amazing!! You guys never fail to make the best versions of songs!

[@Halocene]

Thanks, we try!

[@scarletspeedster6496]

@@Halocene you certainly succeed!

[@hyperanime93]

This version totally sounds like it would be played in a vampire dance club. I'm absolutely here for it! You guys completely knocked this out of the park! Great work!

[@sensmuse9339]

Holy Moly! Thats again so powerful!

[@stuxinator8187]

and this right here is why you guys have been top of my spotify wrapped 3 years running

[@vincentcloud]

Voice of an angel. Absolutely loved this.

[@andrewmctigue4765]

Once again, I love your cover more than the original. Addie’s powerful vocals just elevate the themes of this song so much!

[@Halocene]

Thank you so much!

[@archnitedesigns3575]

Very unique visuals for this one. It definitely fits the angst vibe of the song.

[@Halocene]

Thank you! I love what Brad did with it

[@cholover7]

AMAZING cover, so much loved the singing by Addie, Brad is brilliant as ever, rocking that new beard, but can I just say I absolutely love Quinton, he is a fantastic drummer, and he has this old school rock''n'roll look and vibe with him, I nearly forgot about Joe, sadly, by now, I so hope this trio sticks together for a long time, they are the definition of self made success! ❤‍🔥

[@QuintonKufahl]

Thank you very much, rock and roll!

[@bryanbrew5159]

Love it! One of your best covers - adding to my YT music playlist

[@BcZuBu]

The scream at 1:39 is just so good, and with the added refurb just a cheifs kiss as to why I love your music so much. Just awesome little details!

[@Halocene]

Aw thank you!

[@henrykjachimski3650]

It's your trademark that y'all put your hearts and souls into every song you release, regardless if it's an original, or a cover. But damn, your vocal range here completely blew me away and knocked my socks off, Addie. Rock on, much love, guys!

[@pauliej4139]

Wow! You outdid the Pumpkins. Amazing job.

[@Halocene]

Impossible, but thank you regardless

[@Sortjuh]

This is now my all time favourite cover! Everything about this is ON FIRE!!

[@suzannedetty1617]

Going back doing covers. Love seeing you guys going back at it 🥰🥰. Love the screamo Addie!!! ^-^

[@MrYesman89]

Three covers in a row, one better than the other, big congrats guys, you absolutley rock as usual, great visuals too, and i really love Addie's scream 😍😍🤘🤘

[@lightechoes]

Fantastic! Great mix, awesome vocals, and trippy effects on the video, love it!

[@atraxuswraithe6031]

Fucking INSANELY good cover!!! Love everything about it; the guitar was flawless as was the drums, and the vocals… holy shit, they were sheer perfection!!! Love your work, guys!!!

[@QuintonKufahl]

Thanks!

[@svent1157]

Great, greater - Halocene! Fantastic! I absolutely LOVE it!

[@Halocene]

Many thanks!!

[@GothicCowgirl03]

I love this I have listened to it twice now.

[@gregs.8252]

I really enjoy the striking visual style of this, it is just the icing on the cake to the usual amazing Halocene performance

[@Halocene]

Thanks! We love to have fun with our videos.

[@CosmicBeing616]

I’ve been following y’all for years and this by FAR one of my favorites! Amazing, keep up the good work. Can’t wait for more of those originals to come out.

[@davidanderson5259]

Scarlet-hair Addie is my favourite Addie . Awesome rendition of a great song.

[@iizbadazz111]

Amazing cover! Addie is on fire!!!!

[@melaniellamas9824]

Addie you have the most beautiful voice!!!! You put the emotion in the song even when you don’t write the cover song lyrically!! Love your guys original music also!!!🤘🤘

[@DownstreamV]

Absolutely killer cover! Thanks for all the hard work as usual!

[@mirandahallisy97]

Muszę jeszcze napisać że to moje ulubione wykonanie tej piosenki brawo 🎶🎵🎸⚡👍👈🤙👏👏👏👏👏👏💪✊🆒️🇵🇱🥁🎵🎶🎵🎸👍🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘⚡

[@katrinapaton5283]

Feeling a little spoiled with all these new videos. When I am listening to the radio at work there are already so many song that, when they come on I think, Oh Halocene! even though it isn't but I inevitably end up listening to it in Addie's voice. Happy to add this to the list.

[@fandybagus]

amazing voice.

[@adrianoferrante560]

Nossa! Parabéns! Gostei bastante! Sempre gostei dessa música! Violet Orlandi que me perdoe mas essa é agora a minha cover favorita dessa música! ❤❤❤

[@TsukkiDino]

Lyric: The world is a vampire, sent to drain. Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames. And what do I get for my pain? Betrayed desires and a piece of the game. Even though I know, I suppose I′ll show, All my cool and cold like old Job. Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage. Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage Now I'm naked, nothing but an animal But can you fake it for just one more show? And what do you want; I want to change And what have you got, when you feel the same Even though I know, I suppose I′ll show All my cool and cold like old Job Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage Tell me I'm the only one Tell me there's no other one Jesus was an only son (yeah) Tell me I′m the chosen one Jesus was an only son for you Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage Tell me I′m the only one Tell me there's no other one Jesus was an only son for you And I still believe that I cannot be saved And I still believe that I cannot be saved And I still believe that I cannot be saved And I still believe that I cannot be saved

[@keeperoflenneth]

Oh my god i've never clicked a link so fast (despite being a day late... i was at work okay!?) ... This was my very FIRST favorite song as a kid, even when my parents wouldn't let me listen to "real" music yet, I heard this on the radio and fell in love with it. What a treat this was.

[@CoraErickson-cz3zp]

Haven't heard the original, but you are the best rock band in existence 💪🏻💕!

[@albertpacheco647]
