The Sword/Witchcraft split 12''

The Sword and Witchcraft, possibly the two best bands in the genre, have decided to release an album together, each with two songs on it. That is the coolest fusion (haha they are an infinite energy source, get it? Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more, say no more, a nod's as good as a wink to a blind bat, eh? I'm done.) possible. It may not seem so important, but it seems pretty amazing to me.

And then I heard more news. I was totally in awe of The Sword and believed that they not be any more awesome. Then I read on the Kemado Records MySpace that one of The Sword's songs would be Led Zeppelin cover.

AHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRGHHHGHGHGHHHHHHH!!!!!!

That is the coolest fucking thing I could have imagined and would never have believed it to be true! Seriously, JD Cronise is my hero (vocals/lead 'tar). Or whoever suggested it. My best guess is that it will be either "Immigrant Song" (Led Zeppelin III, 1970) or "No Quarter" (Houses of the Holy, 1973), because both of those are about vikings and the Sword has a thing for vikings without being power metal (and yes, power metal is Robert Plant's fault with his Lord of the Rings songs).

Think of a band. Got one? Led Zeppelin is better than it.
