You really need to track down the super rare release of War Machine by SoundGarden before claiming your favorite cover of this incredible KISS song. It was originally recorded for the "Kiss my Ass" collection of covers but there was some kind of dispute between the the record labels at the time and they couldn't agree on terms so it was cut from the album. I asked Gene Simmons about it when I met him a few years back before covid and why it didn't get released on his "Vault" box set with all the other demos/unreleased material and he said sometimes lawyers and management just can't be reasoned with so the masters of that recording is in a vault collecting dust at Universal I believe. It is a Killer version if you can track a bootleg of it down. I have never seen it leaked on the internet in over 20 years.
No way...I’m not even the biggest fan of metal anymore but the sfu version of this song makes me wanna go out and curb stomp puppies. Maximum Violence was a killer record to boot This version is good but it’s too affected, pretty and well-produced for my tastes
LYRICS: Want to bite the hand that feeds me, want to turn the tides Set the demons free and watch 'em fly Strike down the one who leads me, I'm gonna take his place Gonna vindicate the human race Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine Take the reins of power and seize them, draw the battle lines Armageddon's just a matter of time Tear down the voice of reason, let the arrows fly Your freedom's just a state of mind, yeah Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine I'm a war machine, I'm a war machine
Hate to say it because it's a cover, but this must be in my top ten of favorite Amon Amarth songs next to ; Gods of War Arise, Gaurdians of Asguard, We shall destroy, Masters of war, Runes to my memory, under the northern star, destroyer of the universe, the last stand of Frey & Prediction of warfare! 🤘
Thunder black heart fucking digs this shit standing tall smoke everywhere head banging no care for anything raw high energy ascending head banging louder than hell.
Disc 1 of the Deluxe CD/DVD package includes the following two bonus tracks: 11. "Balls to the Wall" (Accept Cover) 5:22 12. "War Machine" (Kiss cover) 3:35
Sasa Pal Ah ok, guess i should had got the deluxe edition lol. Thanks for the info. I saw they also have a System of a Down cover of Aerials, wonder wich album its on too. I got this one and The Crusher.
+MrCopenhagen113 Not sure what you mean Mrcopen, i asked about war machine, and was answered a while ago it was on a deluxe edition, i only have a regular one.
This is more melodic than Six Feet Under's CHRIS from Cannibal Corpse. It needs some thunder or heavy banging on the CODA though... Knightshift sez.... good shit tho....
@@HeavyMetalSonicRM Sabbath wrote "Dirty Women", Priest had "Burnin Up", Iron Maiden had "22 Acacia Avenue", Motorhead had tons of songs about chicks. Kiss was metal more so in their image than sound, but even then a lot of Gene's songs were pretty metal like "God of Thunder", "Unholy" and this tune.
cette reprise est mieux que celle de Seex feet under, comme quoi on dit que KISS sont des clown du rock okey mes des clowns convoité par pas mal d'autre grand groupe ;)
I also did a cover of this song if anyone is interested. Heavy, but more like the original than this one. Its on youtube. Vicious Hell - War Machine (Kiss Cover) Trying to get my foot in the door. Thanks!
ACDC, KISS now AMON AMARTH
this is probably the heaviest version
CRUCIFIX, from Dallas,TX has a good version as well. \m/
you forgot the best version by Six Feet Under
there's the version of sex feet under too , really brutal too
Joshua Langley I like this one more but Six Feets version is pretty good too
Check out the version by CRUCIFIX. \m/
out of all their covers, I think this one translated best to their style
All of them are good. I like SFU the best, but KISS created it and deserves all the kudos for creating such a great piece of music
This is the best cover if you compare all of them! I am a KISS fan down to the spine.. This is totally the best cover!

man this band is tight!
I'm a huge kiss fan and I think this is the best cover of this song
Cover songs are like a box o' chocolates...y'never know what you're gonna get. Except for this one!
I like it more in this style than Six Feet Under's cover.
It is now that u mention...I'm a big fan of all things Barnes but this blow their shit away \m/
No way...I’m not even the biggest fan of metal anymore but the sfu version of this song makes me wanna go out and curb stomp puppies. Maximum Violence was a killer record to boot
This version is good but it’s too affected, pretty and well-produced for my tastes
rite! i do too
Six feet under is just as good 👌
*jeremy clarkson*
YEEEEEEEESSSSS
They should do a cover of "Unholy" by Kiss.
why not god of thunder.... sounds a little more viking
Tiago Lethal True, true. they would both sound badass.
Great idea .
Tiago Lethal Even better idea !
Rock and Roll Hell too and I Love it Loud
Masterpiece 🔥🤘🏽
LYRICS:
Want to bite the hand that feeds me, want to turn the tides
Set the demons free and watch 'em fly
Strike down the one who leads me, I'm gonna take his place
Gonna vindicate the human race
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
Take the reins of power and seize them, draw the battle lines
Armageddon's just a matter of time
Tear down the voice of reason, let the arrows fly
Your freedom's just a state of mind, yeah
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
I'm a war machine, I'm a war machine
Glad to hear Cookie Monster finally showcasing his vocal talents.
Amon Amarth did a very good job with this Kiss song, War Machine! 🤘🎸💀🗡️
Oh. THAT War Machine
cant get enough of this tune!
\
Wish I could find this on compact disc. Balls To The Wall cover too !
Now this is a version I like.
Man is this killer or what...? Awesome...
Good cover! Six feet under do a sweet cover aswell
If you like this and Six Feet Under doing "War Machine", check out the version by CRUCIFIX from Dallas,TX. \m/
AWESOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME!
Moper Or no car !
gran versión de kiss!!! \m/
No offense to SFU. This version NAILED IT!
Hate to say it because it's a cover, but this must be in my top ten of favorite Amon Amarth songs next to ; Gods of War Arise, Gaurdians of Asguard, We shall destroy, Masters of war, Runes to my memory, under the northern star, destroyer of the universe, the last stand of Frey & Prediction of warfare! 🤘
Thunder black heart fucking digs this shit standing tall smoke everywhere head banging no care for anything raw high energy ascending head banging louder than hell.
What's weird is apart from the vocals the kiss version is heavier
Yeah this one focuses too much on the chugs and forgets what made the original so special
Segundo cover do Amon Amarth que é melhor que a original
excellent Metal \m/
Its better that the original!!!! Yeeah
First listen the original.
Grande versão.
Fucking awesome !!
My friends
CRUCIFIX from Dallas,TX also has a great version of this song. \m/
Your comment just sen't me on a hour and a half tour over the internets, and now i know that realm vs realm is an EA trade mark lol
Hail amon amarth!!!!!! And the couple kiss songs I like!!!!! Ya! A right
nice!
For a second I thought this was gonna be cover of the Zao song Praise the War Machine. That would've sounded cool to.
i like all versions
There's one game to play while listening to this music; Dark Age of Camelot.
when a cover Reaches perfectness ...... AMON AMARTH FUCKING KICKS ASS !!!!!!!
Psycho Sacco brought me here.
someone get that singer some cookies STAT!!
Where do I get this song? This album doesn't have that bonus track and I cant find it anywhere
verry heavy i love ittttt energiee fuckkkkk i want warr
I take it you found Uthgard then? know that it's a freeshard(server) of DAOC, great fun and awesome community.
Where can I download this ? ITunes does not have it
I'm not a Kiss fan at all, but this is a sick cover.
play this with no vocals,,,would be totally brutal
Funy amon amarth and six feet under made one. i was goona say this is sixfeet under singing. But i liston for a second yeah its amon amrth.
90s US death metal band Resurrection did a cover as well. This is probably the KISS song with the most metal covers of it,.
In my opinion amon amarth sing this song better then Kiss or AC DC
AC DC doesn't sing this song. Their War Machine is an entirely different song.
You better watch out.
wich album is it on? cause its not on Surtur Rising... i got that one.
Disc 1 of the Deluxe CD/DVD package includes the following two bonus tracks:
11. "Balls to the Wall" (Accept Cover) 5:22
12. "War Machine" (Kiss cover) 3:35
Sasa Pal Ah ok, guess i should had got the deluxe edition lol. Thanks for the info. I saw they also have a System of a Down cover of Aerials, wonder wich album its on too. I got this one and The Crusher.
+Destro WOD Aerials is on Surtur Rising, its like the last track i think
+MrCopenhagen113 Not sure what you mean Mrcopen, i asked about war machine, and was answered a while ago it was on a deluxe edition, i only have a regular one.
yes Aerials is on the Regular one.
similar but better than the 6 feet under version of war machine
War muchine ruls
melhor que o original
This is more melodic than Six Feet Under's CHRIS from Cannibal Corpse. It needs some thunder or heavy banging on the CODA though...
Knightshift sez.... good shit tho....
this fucking song kicks hella ass
I heard Kiss covered this song?
True
vikings r awsome
family vikings is yet victory for battle
i thought that these true metalheads hates glam metal
They do. KISS is not glam, though.
When I was writing this comment I was dividing metal into many genres, now I am listening to these genres as one, so I stopped dividing metal
***** Dressing up like a girl and writing hit radio songs about girls for girls is not metal.
+HeavyMetalSonicRM . It's actually pandering to our gynocentric society... MGTOW.
@@HeavyMetalSonicRM Sabbath wrote "Dirty Women", Priest had "Burnin Up", Iron Maiden had "22 Acacia Avenue", Motorhead had tons of songs about chicks.

Tazz theme?? Sure sounds similar.
No
cette reprise est mieux que celle de Seex feet under, comme quoi on dit que KISS sont des clown du rock okey mes des clowns convoité par pas mal d'autre grand groupe ;)
You beta watchOUTT
Coz am a waaar MACHIINEE
This would've been a great inclusion in Thor: Ragnarok
word
Fuck marvel.
I hate to say this but this turned out sounding a little bit like Lordi with bigger balls..
Six Feet who?
A 3 putitos no les gustó esta versión. Creo que la de six feet under y esta son de las más heavy que escuché. \m/
:P
Anyone got tabs for that shit and tuning ?
+Alıce In Chains It's a cover of a Kiss song. It should be easy to find.
+vagrantlibertine yea but it doesnt sound so right :/
B Standart, i guess, as always AA does
I kinda like the Six Feet Under version better.
+muxz SFU version is more slower than this - I personally think AA made a better cover, tempo wise, but I still like Chris Barnes vocals better
+muxz Six Feet Under version has the guitar solo (way different but still got it).....
Phucking awesome
Fucking A
Six Feet Under version is 10x more brutal than this.
Hail from Ukraine!
I also did a cover of this song if anyone is interested. Heavy, but more like the original than this one. Its on youtube. Vicious Hell - War Machine (Kiss Cover)
Trying to get my foot in the door. Thanks!
Kiss has always sucked as a band ..AA Killed it..far better than original...sodom had a great cover of this tune..not on utube I see+ it was live
mln4ok: Don't make me laugh and Chris Caravello: Agree with you,these guys ruined this song.
Six Feet Under version is so much better than this. I like Amon Amarth, but god damn this isn't their best.
Yes... They did a pretty good job.
No... They came nowhere near as good as Kiss
Lmao I just saw them live
horrible...the original sounds powerfuller!!!
I love Amon Amarth but this is a NO NO. I like Kiss version much more.
Laughable.
No
This cover isnt hard enough, six feet under's version isnt well-made, to put it mildly. I wish there was some kinda hardcore version.
