People that just remember Roy as the chubby, jolly guy on Hee Haw are sleeping on the fact that he was one of the greatest guitar players to ever live.

The original

Not a weirdo cover, but a damned good cover of one of my favorite Elton songs.

[J.T.]

This thing is one of the best things.

So I was looking at the Sacrifice discography, it led me to the Sacrifice/Propagandhi split 7" with Sacrifice covering "Anthem" by Rush and Propagandhi doing a vengeful cover of COC's "Technocracy", and that led me to this. Sounds like the Dicks when in country mode, honestly.

I really liked the version of this song from the Tao of Steve soundtrack. Don’t know if I knew it was a cover.

Tom Waits covering "Sea of Love."

 

I first heard this in the Al Pacino movie "Sea of Love."

Finally something from them that doesn't come across as "try hard".

[Curt McGirt]

Crossposting this. You will laugh so hard.

I am a huge fan of Unsane and I am embarrassed to say that this is the first time I've heard their cover of The Bloat by The Melvins.

 

 

[Cobra Commander]

found this looking around Spotify viral charts last night, both bands are German but this is apparently viral in Turkey.

You might appreciate this then 

They also did some pretty great Kiss and Roky Erickson covers on the same comp

That's really pleasantly obnoxious!

[Curt McGirt]

Ah screw it here's all of them. The Repulsion cover isn't really a Weirdo Cover so I'll leave it off. 

EDIT: FWIW "obnoxious" is how I consider any and all "death 'n' roll" material from Entombed. You can't beat the old stuff though, and Entombed A.D. is surprisingly good

Not sure this is by any means a weird cover, but I really liked this one. I'm a sucker for great Dead covers lately though.
