Had no idea folk metal was even a thing... :lol:

Now for a twist. I've never heard of this Australian band the Easybeats, but the Mona Lisa Twins strike again by covering one of their songs..

I have the Easybeats version on Spotify. You can tell it's the Sixties by "spend my bread."

So, how does it compare to the original? I've never come across the song before.

It is well executed but no real improvement.

Wow. That was a big rock song locally growing up and then stuck around as a big classic rock song. It was played on AOR long long after it should have relegated to oldies, probably because it had a protopunk feel to it that sustained in the 70s and 80s and was anthemic for bringing in the weekends.

I don't remember ever hearing it on the radio while growing up in the 80's and 90's, and I used to listen to the radio a lot back then.

Woah, The Sword got back together! At least long enough to record this killer cover of Tull’s “Locomotive Breath”.
