Is this what they mean by a "cage match"?

Bah, he sang it a cappella, the guy can't play the piano. He was even off key most of the time.

The comments on that Death Metal Cover video are hilarious.

I prefer the original, this is good but too fast for me, and needs more feeling...

I'm sure he dropped a beat at about 1min 45sec. Deafening though and such talent.

Typical modern musicians, think they have the technical ability to play the works of the old masters. Your tempo is off, the tonality is all screwed up, it's all just simple blast beats with little to no improvisation. The original will always be the best, just cause you play it louder doesn't mean it's any better.

I would stage dive on this so hard
