The German metal band van Canto uses vocal noises to imitate guitars on covers of well-known rock and metal songs ( such as " Master of Puppets " by Metallica ) as well as original compositions.

The band performed mostly covers of international hits, but Andersson soon started writing his own material, and gave the band the classic hits " No Response ", " Sunny Girl ", " Wedding ", " Consolation ", " It's Nice To Be Back " and " She Will Love You " amongst others.

Since the band reunited, Seymour has again designed their album covers.

The 1984 mockumentary This is Spinal Tap, a comedy based around a fictional 1970s rock band, was filmed in the style of a documentary and includes such details as fake album covers and historical videos done in the styles of the late 1960s and 1970s.

To this end, manager Jim Dickson instigated a loose session where the band recorded several honky tonk staples from their live act, contemporary pop covers in a countrified vein (" To Love Somebody ", " Lodi ", " I Shall Be Released ", " Honky Tonk Women "), and Larry Williams ' " Bony Moronie ".

Deal's musical background was folk music and country ; she had formed a country-folk band with her sister in her teenage years, and played covers of artists such as The Everly Brothers and Hank Williams.

A typical punk scene is made up of punk and hardcore bands ; fans who attend concerts, protests, and other events ; zine publishers, band reviewers, and writers ; visual artists who create illustrations for zines, posters, and album covers ; people who organise concerts, and people who work at music venues or independent record labels.

The album shows the band moving away from covers to original material.

After the failure of The Mole Show and abandonment of the unfinished Mole Trilogy, the band turned their attention to a new concept-a series of albums, each consisting of a side-long suite of covers by American composers the band admired.

The band, which in the previous year had grown weary of performing for screaming audiences, followed the contemporary standard industry practice of including covers in order to maintain an expected level of productivity.

While the band did covers, they also played some of Morrison's early songs, such as " Could You Would You ", which he had written in Camden Town while touring with The Manhattan Showband.

The concerts, which were required to be at least 15 minutes long, as per Guinness rules, featured a mix of special covers, songs rarely or never performed live by the band before, and new songs from Heady Fwends.

The Kinks ' early recordings of 1964 ranged from covers of R & B standards like " Long Tall Sally " and " Got Love If You Want It "; to the chiming, melodic beat music of Ray Davies ' earliest original compositions for the band, " You Still Want Me " and " Something Better Beginning "; to the more influential proto-metal, protopunk, power chord-based hard rock of the band's first two hit singles, " You Really Got Me " and " All Day and All of the Night ".

With the help of Ziggy Elman, also in the band, he transformed a traditional Jewish melody into a popular song, `` And The Angels Sing ''.
