Metal Maniacs: Join my Light Folk 2 Heavy Metal Contest
Local artists: I'm conducting an experiment, and I'm including you! All you have to do is to take an old, happy, light folk tune and give it a heavy metal treatment. The advantage of old, traditional folk tunes is that one rarely has to worry about copyright infringement. Many are considered Public Domain. Here's the challenge I am presenting to you: All you and your band have to do is to take an old, light folk classic and give it the heavy metal treatment. Lay it down, put it in an mp3 and post a link in the comments section below identifying the name of the song and the name of your band. If the majority of comments concur that your cover is heavier, harder and better than the one I am presenting here, you become the reigning Light Folk To Heavy Metal Champion. You keep your crown until somebody does a better job than you. The song posted here is I've Bin Workin' on the Railroad/Dinah by a new metal band called Metal2Metal. The band is made up of me, myself, and I. You may think I destroyed a perfectly good song, that's okay, as long as you're able to take my metal crown away with the power of public opinion. On your marks, get set, GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One week, and still no challengers.  That means Metal2Metal retains their title.  METAL2METAL, rock on!
