Metal Monday–Simon and Garfunkel Edition

April 7, 2019 by James Young

No, your eyes do not deceive you.  For some reason, Simon and Garfunkel seem to well and truly appeal to heavy metal bands.  A lot of readers may remember Disturbed did a cover of “The Sound of Silence”

Well there’s also the less famous Leaves’ Eyes rendition of “Scarborough Fair”

Both are great songs, and I’m always happy when the Ipod randoms to them while writing.  Now if only I could find a heavy metal cover of “I Am A Rock” or “Cecilia.”  *sigh*
