Cover vs. Original

Bring the Pain


Mindless Self Indulgence basically destroys a classic Method Man track with schizophrenic delivery and aggressive production values. It's likely that some people will file both of these songs under "noise" but I really enjoy the MSI cover because frontman Jimmy Urine's completely insane vocalizations add a sense of graphic violence to the song that the orginal sorely lacked.

I think MSI really mad a good twist on it...and plus i'm not a big fan of rap so yea...even though Method did have the original Jimmy made it work....

Yeah, I say MSI did the track better and everything. Oh and, there is no Method Man's version cause it's the original, and Method Man isn't more than one person so he's not a they. Without his lyrics the cover song woulnd't be possible. Both good tracks though

This is one where I'll definitely say that the remix kicked the original's butt. The Method Man version, in my opinion, is a bit lacking in the variety department, while the MSI remake is so bipolar/schizophrenic/ADHD (Would you expect anything less from them?) that there's absolutely no way to get bored. Sorry Method Man. You've just been whooped.
