https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1idsdNa_dQHey guys here's a fun little game.

Edit: I just realized u cant embed youtube/soundcloud which makes this game a lot worse

[Dothgar]

I like samples from classic tunes, I feel like a modern cover of anything needs to hold its own outside of the sample though...and take that away and its just a bit too generic for me. Not bad, listenable :p 6.5/10

Going to rate 0/10 because I am starting to get a pedophile vibe from you now after listening to the song

Been in a country mood today. This guy isn't exactly new but he is certainly less known unless you follow the Texas Red Dirt scene.

Bah, I was about to comment on the Townes Van Zandt song cause he's awesome. To Live is to Fly is also a great song.

Anyway, to Baler's - I did a little bit of research on this guy because it sounded like an acoustic punk song that I'd never heard of, and I like that genre. Sucks what happened to the dude but not very into the song 5/10.

A song from the genre I do like: https://youtu.be/lwYxnpoB3gc

[Jorgam]

10/10 - I love that song!

Closest I can come up with what this reminds me of is Frank Turner. Maybe if the Get Up Kids and Street Light Manifesto had an acoustic love child.

I really dig it, great song. I was expecting emo (This Wildlife or Dashboard Confessional style) but it’s really not at all, way more folky/punk

Frank Turner is great also, try this one if you like acoustic folky music.

I am not into most of the folk genre, but that song was enjoyable. I would listen to it again. 8/10.

After listening to this again I realized it was a chopped up version that VEVO put out and is shorter and cuts out some build ups that make the song way better.

Ugh you're supposed to link something for the next person! So I'll go with Spyder's.

7/10. This is a little too poppy for my tastes. Not that I don't like pop or pop-punk, but it was a bit generic. I feel like it's the type of song I'd like more after a few listens, to hear the nuances. But I'm a SoCal girl myself and a fan of Fat Wreck Chords so, yeh. (btw I liked that Frank Turner song you posted but was too late to comment!)

Spoon is pretty good, although their sound/albums sound very similar (relative to other bands). Played the fuck out of Gimme Fiction and Ga Ga Ga Ga. This is from Transference, I'm pretty sure.

I give it a 6.5/10.

Half way through I kept thinking of the munsters. Then the ear hits the 80s dude's drink and all I can think is Diablo 2 pvp. Consider Red.

Tool may very well be the best band I've ever heard in terms of a quality per album. Even if you dilute their discography w/ APC's first two albums, I think Tool/APC edges out even Radiohead.

However, the majority of Tool fans that I've met have extremely narrow taste in music (i.e. Tool or old Prog Rock is all they listen to). Even Tool hates Tool fans.

Anyhow, I give Ticks and Leeches an 8/10, and it's probably my lowest scoring song on that album. I wish Waffles/Oink/What were still around, there was a xylophone rendition of Lateralus that was goddamn amazing. I think VSQ also has a tribute for Lateralus too. Edit: http://www.rockabyebabymusic.com/rockabye-baby-lullaby-renditions-of-tool-2534.html found it.
