All superb versions and really capture the mood and intonation of the originals. Ronnie Corbett is increasingly respected in the thrash metal scene. I was at Pathway Studios the other day with a mate in the business and Ronnie was there laying down some ferocious tracks. Edgy. Still wears those pringle sweaters though. Legend.

Anything by Nouvelle Vague
