Vs Tuesday: Two Bands! One Song! Who Wins?! FIGHT! Duality.

“…I push my fingers into my eyes, It’s the only thing that slowly stops the ache, But it’s made of all the things I have to take, Jesus, it never ends, it works it’s way inside, If the pain goes on, I’m not gonna make it, All I’ve got, all I’ve got is insane, All I’ve got, all I’ve got is insane…”

Over the past two and a half decades Slipknot have steadily produced the anthems like “Wait and Bleed” to “Left Behind” or “Psychosocial” and with new album “The End, So Far” dropping on 30th September there are more on the horizon. But for one night only we return to “The Subliminal Verses” for a little piece of one of their biggest in “Duality” while also raising a glass to the dearly departed Joey Jordison, whose presence is sorely missed. So to our head to head. In the Blood Red corner we have Swedish Melodic Death Metal quartet Eyes Wide Open who dropped their version of the classic having spent the last decade grinding out victories like “Life Through Death“. In the Ice Blue corner we have the musical collaboration between vocalist Lauren Babic and songwriter Jarrod Alonge that is CrazyEightyEight. They did their damage for the second volume in their covers EP series that also includes works from 30 Seconds to Mars and Paramore… so who wins? You decide!
