Remix master Andy Rehfeldt has just unleashed yet another piece of parody with a metal version of Justin Timberlake’s ‘Suit & Tie.’

You may be familiar with Andy Rehfeldt, whose work has accumulated over 31 million views on the musician’s YouTube channel. Along with transforming pop songs such as Justin Bieber’s ‘Baby,’ Lady Gaga’s ‘Paparazzi’ and Miley Cyrus’ ‘Party in the USA’ into insane metal pieces, Rehfeldt also goes the other way by giving metal’s biggest bands a pop makeover. In this respect, Rehfeldt’s most viewed works include a smooth jazz version of Metallica‘s ‘Enter Sandman,’ a Radio Disney version of Slipknot‘s ‘Wait and Bleed’ and a bossa nova version of Iron Maiden‘s ‘The Trooper.’

Rehfeldt’s latest offering is ‘Justin Timberlake Does Metal,’ which has been racking up big numbers on YouTube. Taking a recent Timberlake performance as inspiration, the pop singer’s backing band gets turned into a metal powerhouse in this version of ‘Suit & Tie.’ If you’re a regular Loudwire reader, you may not be a fan of Justin Timberlake — and you may not be wrong. However, this new Rehfeldt creation is worth checking out.

Watch Andy Rehfeldt’s metal re-imagining of ‘Suit & Tie’ in the video above.

Had no idea the Doors put out to albums sans Morrison. I'll have to check them out some time. I was a huge Doors fan back in the day, so I have all their other records.

My sister got me into the Doors, they and GNR were her favorite bands growing up. She used to think Axl was the reincarnation of Mr. Mojo Risen, because they were both amazing lyrasists and they were both fucking nuts.

On Aug. 30, 1973, after two years and two albums without deceased frontman Jim Morrison, the surviving members of the Doors decided to call it quits.

The move represented a reversal for remaining Doors John Densmore, Robbie Krieger and Ray Manzarek, who’d elected to carry forward as a trio following Morrison’s death on July 3, 1971. In October of that year, the reconfigured band released ‘Other Voices,’ recorded with Krieger and Manzarek sharing lead vocal duties; the following year, they repeated the formula for the group’s eighth studio LP, ‘Full Circle,’ released on July 17, 1972.

While neither post-Morrison record could rightly be considered a flop — ‘Other Voices’ peaked at No. 31 on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums chart, while ‘Full Circle’ got as high as No. 68 — neither captured the public’s attention the way the band’s music did when Morrison was at the helm. In fact, the band’s profile had decreased so markedly that its breakup was merely mentioned in passing in the pages of Rolling Stone.

The Doors’ legacy proved hard to escape, however. Densmore, Krieger and Manzarek decided to pull the plug only after auditioning a series of vocalists to replace Morrison — and they might have settled on former Audience singer Howard Werth if Manzarek hadn’t opted out, leaving Krieger and Manzarek to regroup and soldier on for a couple of years as the poorly christened Butts Band.

By 1978, all three of them were back in the studio again, lending backing tracks to recordings of Morrison reciting his poetry. The result, ‘An American Prayer,’ went platinum, helping cement the trio’s position as custodians (and occasional opportunists) of Doors history.

The surviving Doors have reunited sporadically in subsequent years, both in the studio (where they reconvened to complete the song ‘Orange County Suite’ for a 1997 box set) and on the stage (at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993 and for a 2000 episode of ‘VH1 Storytellers’). In 2002, Manzarek and Krieger drafted Ian Astbury of the Cult to front a Doors tribute called the Doors of the 21st Century — at least until legal action from Densmore prompted a switch to Manzarek–Krieger or Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger of the Doors. This version of the band dissolved on May 20, 2013, following Manzarek’s death from cancer.

I call this falling off the wagon. Lol. Back to the diet tomorrow.

#286 Re: The Garden » What are you eating? » 617 weeks ago

I started my day with a bacon egg and cheeses sandwich on an english muffin, and a large extreme caffeine coffee. Lunch consisted of a basket of fried chicken and french fries with a diet coke. In the afternoon, I had a tall glass of chocolate milk. Dinner was Pizza Hut pizza and cheesey bread. And just a little while ago, I found a bag of bacon and cheese potato skin flavored ruffles potato chips in the pantry, and went to town.

As I think back to all of this, I can't help but think... It's a good thing I had that diet coke. If not, boy, that would have been excessive.

Would have been an interesting fight back in the day, if for no other reason than they both looked like chicks back then.

Slash won't give a flying fuck. I think it's way cool that she named her kid Axl.

Lol, I think it's mad cool too, but I wouldn't if I were her husband. I'd be pretty pissed at the suggestion of my wife naming our kid after a celebrity she used to have the hots for. And I'm sure my wife would go ape shit with I wanted to name our daughter Pamela Anderson.

Well that'll go down well with Slash.

Does Slash still have a hate on for Axl?  Thought Axl was the only one hanging on to that beef.
