Two really good takes here, I have never heard the song before either so it's interesting. I am going to have to mull this one over for a little while, strat, yours sounds mixed well but is really quiet so I had to crank everything up on my PC.

**axeshredder** · 02-13-2005, 09:41 AM

nice touch strat...sounds great...but your torturing my subwoofer...woh you really kicked up the low end

**Scott Parnell** · 02-13-2005, 09:58 AM

cool battle guys. Liked em both. i love tom morello's style. I liked em both a lot to be honest,, but as for voting,, i gave axe the edge here cause I liked his wammy solo that he did a bit more so. both are really cool renditions! wtg you 2!

Hey, I remixed it with out a bass boost. I totally dig your solo break Axe and wah work! I think I'm dead.

Great solo Axe. What type of effect are you using. I'l like to get that kind of sound on my GNX4. I'm sure it can do it....

**axeshredder** · 02-13-2005, 10:41 AM

Great job guys good luck to you both! Great versions on both accounts!!

**J-Mart** · 02-13-2005, 11:07 AM

Both were very cool! The Whammy Pedal work was cool axe. I liked to flanger work too Strat78. I'll vote, but won't say who

**Mondy** · 02-13-2005, 01:21 PM

Sorry guys, I do not know this one either. But I had to go with strat78 on this one because his playing seemed to be more aggressive, more edge to it.

However, I could not say which one of yas got closer to the original.

Apart from that, there wasn't much in it to my ears.

Lazertronic · 02-13-2005, 01:26 PM

I'm going to say that Axe was MUCH closer to the original, but, sorry axe ol' buddy, I'm going to go with Strat on this one, I like his solo breaks and he did the scratchy thingy. I know he didn't use that wah, and used a flanger instead (which I'm not too fond of), but I believe he deserves the credit on the solo work for this one!

For a very short period of time I played in a ratm cover band. We didnt have a sing tho, so I'm pretty used to hearing this sort of ratm-cover

Enough about me, time to vote!
You both did an awesome job on this, and it was great to hear a bit of ratm.
Axe's version was great, and the solo rocked, but I found strats version to be even more to my liking. More agressive and a more powerful tone did it for me.

Thanks for voting everybody! Keep them comming. Like Axe said, this tune was a pisser, but it was fun trying to find a way to put it all together with out the vocal. The thing that is cool about Tom Morello, from RATM is that he never does the obvious. I think both Axe and I did this tune with Toms playing in mind. However, I was leaning a little more towards Ace Freely (you don't here that too often).

Rythameen · 02-14-2005, 10:18 AM

Hmmmm. tough call, but after a couple of listenings, I gotta go with Axe.
