Nothing will ever be as good as the original. But the fact that these bands and the people behind it decided to make a tribute to one of Sweden's sleaziest singers of all time is great. I recieved my copy of the record from Dave's mother Liz today. I've heard a few teasers of the songs earlier, but it's nice to finally here the complete tracks. Since I have already heard Blackrain's beautiful version of "Lost Horizons" I was mostly curious about PeepShow's interpretation of "Breaking the chainz". Well they didn't disapoint me! It's heavy, raw and everything else that this song needs to be to live up to its reputation.
It also happens to be my favourite Crashdïet video. I wasn't very fond of it at first to be honest with you. But that was before I saw the point. And before I started living this life myself. A life where I sometimes feel trapped in society's rules of how to act and behave. It's frustrating. I always count the days until I get to go out and break the pattern. Break the chainz.
Well, I'll continue to listen to the record now. I'm halfway through.
What's cool is to know that Dave actually inspired these bands to be what they are today.
If he had only known what he would mean to rock n´ roll one day.
