That speed is incredible and terrifying at the same time - the original song is already so fast Amazingly done!

So as long as you are quarintined we will get covers? Sounds good to me

[@geckomustard7251]

The Cog is Dead does not have the recognition it deserves. I love steampunk, and the way you sing. I remember when i heard The Death Of The Cog for the first time, And when I noticed I had heard all of your music. It became my favorite. Thank you for existing, here in Brazil beign your biggest fan.

[@sonoftheempire5015]

My tongue broke just by listening to this...amazing

[@smiletoda4448]

It's truly an artwork to transform a song so drastically while still keeping the original spirit. You're doing a great job!

[@Salty_Duck]

This has got to be my most favourite covers of this!

[@Mandemon1990]

Believer was always kinda "I like lyrics, but instruments don't work for me". This? This is perfection.

[@jamesclark6864]

This is amazing! Another good song to cover in this style would be When You’re Evil by Voltaire.

[@mitrotsky]

Unique band style, incredible reading technique. This is unbelievable!

[@an1m8r]

It is so weird to see John at the end being chill after.... that incredible performance. Awesome job!

[@epicsakura101]

Very nice : ) A couple times while I was watching this I was reminded of those videos where they put backing tracks on recordings of auctioneers.

[@loafusloaufusboboafus8971]

Jeez! Talk about talent! I can’t believe you aren’t as recognized as you should be. And with that speed I wanna hear a cover of The Modern Major General Song, heh

[@Foster_117]

I wasn't really sure when I clicked but I'm impressed!

[@eugenezhitnikov]

I think this time I won't even check out the original song. I like this cover a lot, these double (triple?) time parts are terrifying (in a good way), as one told already. By the way, I'll continue to suggest Powerwolf to cover. That would be really interesting to compare.

[@generictimestamperstupendi9021]

i think you should mainly cause the original song is catchy... but damn does it sound slow now that ive heard this

[@MrJJandJim]

Yet another fantastic piece of music! What's next, Rap God by Eminem? Just kidding, this is fast enough already!

You took a song that I personally think is overplayed and made into something I actually enjoy. This is why I love your song covers.

[@palladiamorsdeus]

...okay look, I know this has been said before but I love how you can take any song and turn it into a mustache twirling villain song, even without altering the words. Bravo, good sir.

[@noisyphilosopherkrk522]

How has no one scouted this guy for animated musicals, this is something I'd expect out of such with the quality! Ps mood whiplash, he looks and sounds different he pulls off a Clark Kent routine well

[@sierranevadahiker4440]

Awesome! I'd also love to hear a cover of "This is Halloween"

[@raspberryslush]

While I generally dislike imagine dragons, believer was one of their few songs I can say I enjoyed, and this blew it out of the water. Great work.

[@ItsImagineThis]

That is so good!!! I don’t wanna sound like a overactive obsessed fangirl that you need to get away from but I love it!!!! I wish you good luck during these times

[@Shindai]

I never like this song, but I love how you've done it :) The super fast bits sound awesome

[@thecogisdead]

Thanks so much! The goal every time I do one of these covers is to take something that might not have originally been in line with The Cog is Dead's fanbase's musical tastes and transform it into something you guys would like, so thank you for that! ^_^

So let’s say that.. hypothetically, you are dead And I’ve gone ahead and ripped your mask right off your head, oh ooh And then I crushed said head, oh ooh Then let’s say I... I don't know, murdered all your friends Then I travel back in time to murder them again, oh ooh Your friends just died again, oh ooh So trust me my friend I don't think we’ve had enough time to begin Cause Makuta Teridax has hundreds and thousands of ways to end your feeble life and 941 of them all seem to have caused them some painful phenomenon better watch out or pay the price, roll the dice, you’re gonna feel… Pain! You seem to have forgotten I'm a cheater, a schemer…. Pain! It’s such a shame that you were all so eager, so eager Pain! Deception is my one and only game Now watch your Toa heroes feel the... Pain! Bow before your new and only leader! Your leader.. Mask of life? More like mask of getting backstabbed with a knife Cause you can try to sacrifice but don't believe the hype Dont you know Matoro totaly sucks I was planning my attack Waiting for your defenses to crack Observing the foresight that you lacked While you fought off Morbuzakh And you never did anything, that ever, meant a thing, cept bring you enemy forty-odd million feet higher into a robotical entity and now you will see you’re going to be in Pain! You seem to have forgotten I'm a cheater, a schemer…. Pain! It’s such a shame that you were all so eager, so eager Pain! Deception is my one and only game Now watch your Toa heroes feel the... Pain! Bow before your new and only leader! Your leader.. Well let's wrap up So we can finally end this little game You can try to win, but you know I’ll get revived again oh, ooh Even G2 knows my name So if you want some of me you’ll need some planetary deus ex trickery to put a dent in me so if you dare, be prepared for Pain! You seem to have forgotten I'm a cheater, a schemer…. Pain! It’s such a shame that you were all so eager, so eager Pain! Deception is my one and only game Now watch your Toa heroes feel the... Pain!

I know you're a steampunk artist and you're doing covers of songs, and I love your style. You may have never heard this so bare with me. What if...you did a cover of one of Creature Features songs? Or Rufus Rex? Rufus Rex is a side project of Creature Feature and they haven't...done much new music. It doesn't matter which song, I just want to see if, you don't have to, you can manage to put your own little twist in it. I know quarantine is tough and I'm really glad you're still out here doing your best 🥺
