That being said, 10000 Fists? Killer riffage all over the place and the vocals are relentless from beginning to end. Most bands from that era had checked out by that point in their career, but 10000 Fists was first album intense.
That was the fun part of their career. Having seen them a bunch of times that was the tour where it felt like they'd figured shit out. Guitar leads started happening on a real scale, the riffs were awesome, and Draimond was just pissed off enough to have some real snarl even on stage. It's been downhill from there.

The band is Shinedown; because of that, frankly, I’m surprised it wasn’t used as the theme song for Monday Night Raw. It’s still an atrocious cover, as are most of these. Try GWAR’s cover of She-Bop, if you can find it.

I am all about fun covers and bands doing their takes on it. But you know Draiman has by now got to be the most pretentious, chin pierced over serious idiot you could ever imagine. In their defense; I don't like this song at all. As far as post Police Sting stuff goes. So it's a double nope for me.
