Title: My band (ANACRUSIS) covering NMA in Belgium
Post by: KN on March 01, 2012, 05:19:04 PM: I wanted to share a this link with everyone. My band ANACRUSIS covered "I Love the World" way back in 1991. In 2010-2011 we were fortunate enough to reunite for a few select shows including 3 festivals in Europe and I have just finished editing our concert from the Alacatraz Metal Festival in Belgium last August.

Here is our version of one of my all-time favorite NMA songs...

The other 2 covers were just recorded by me on my PC (not the band) in the late '90s I think when someone on the message board was trying to put together a NMA cover song CD (don't know if it ever happened though). They are posted on my Anacrusis website, but here are direct links...

"No Greater Love"...

Post by: KN on March 05, 2012, 02:58:19 PM: The compilation I remember was supposed to be called something like "Remodelled", I believe. I wonder if this is the same one? Also, I think it was much earlier like 1998 or so.

Here is a good link for the one you mentioned...

*edited to say Moose's post on that site mentioned "Remodelled" and apparently it never quite got off the ground.

I believe Chris Benn who had the original idea for "Remodelled" sent all the recordings to Jeff & Gary when they started compiling "Toast of Cain".
