Bullet For My Valentine - Domination Lyrics

how can they went to imagine dragon cover after this one

Honestly I approached first to this cover than the original... I think it helped me enjoying both... but still the first you listen the most you love imho...

Not a bad effort

Wow. They fucking ruined it. Thanks bfmv..

Nice cover!

Good cover.

That guitar tone is so compressed and weak

You gotta admit, the screams were flawless, the clean may be too much melodic, but still an absurd cover, and I prefer this instrumental too

Dimebag and Padge are the two reasons I picked up a guitar. This is bitchin'!

Agony is the price
That you'll pay in the end
Domination consumes you
Then calls you a friend
It's a twisted fall

Binds are like steel
And manipulates the will
To be
And it's hard to see
How soon we forget
When there's nothing else left
To destroy
It's a useless ploy

Your eyes will see the dawn of the day
And the writing on the wall
Those words that stare into your soul
And to yourself you will befall

It's domination
Pushed into living hell
Domination

A now blacked heart
Is reaching out in divinity
Body suspended by chains over razors
And nails
It's a penalty

Each razor a vice
And each nail marks demise
Of your life
Grim construction grows
And life played a trick
Sealed you in brick by brick
'Til your end
Forcing you to bend

Your eyes will see the dawn of the day
And the writing on the wall
Those words that stare into your soul
And to yourself you will befall

It's domination
Pushed into living hell
Domination

03:52 i feel my balls bouncing !!!

Pantera would be happy hear this

I showed this to my pet gold fish , now he’s a shark

I highly doubt that.

Tbh matt's "singing" is ass but the rest of the song is actually flames

YOOOOOOOOOOOO

Would have been better with no vocals imo

a super song from a super band :D

when the breakdown is heavier than pantera

I like this one better

Perfecto el cover

The breakdown is the best thing metal has ever produced honestly

The album is not called tears don’t fall. That’s just one of the best songs from the album. It’s actually called poison but good job with everything else.

TEars dont fall wss an ep

This is complete shit. Sounds like a try too hard kid throwing a tantrum. I waaaant my ice creeeeeaaaam!!!!!

I believe covering pantera is the hardest thing a band can cover cause you'll never find another anselmo or dime,but this is a kickass cover

Rip vinnie and dime

I'm a HUGE pantera fan. And it's safe to say this is a good cover

Breakdown and Solo are the jet components to covering this song.

I doubt Bullet set out to sound better than the original, and were merely paying respects to the metal gods who paved the way for their success. You can’t deny the brutality that takes place on this track. Pure masterpiece.

Key* not jet

Growing up as a teen I loved this song. I thought it was an original for some time till I discovered the original from Pantera of course. I think the original is a little out dated (a remaster would be nice) which gives this one the edge over it. I thought the vocals were really good back in the day. Loved BFMV. Now re-visting this song and have consumed death metal for almost a decade now, I think the vocals could've be done better. Not death growl per say, but alot more of a cleaner, clearer growl would've been nice. Outro still has the kick so....still a pretty good cover!

I listened to a little bit then just skipped to the breakdown

DOMINATION 666 LET GOT INFERN

good, Yeah!!!!!!!!

I love what they did with the breakdown at the end

I love Bullet, have seen them 3 times live

But I can't help but feel conflicted with this. Pantera's was way better.

Idk, I feel the breakdown in the original is more headbang inducing. This is good, but the original blows it out of the water.

It’s because it’s a cover on an unknown EP they don’t care who likes it it’s just a tribute to an amazing band. They weren’t trying to be better than pantera

03:48 best breakdown

aa türk napan askim

I don't speak 💥💣

@Gilbert Valdez "OHH" DI DI DI :P

matt grows are so lame in this song

y u no on spotify

bullet needs to cover war nerve. they did a great job with this

Bullet for my fucking valentine !!!!!!!

Can't beat the original,but coming from bullet,my favorite band,it's damn good

This is a good cover but nobody can even come close to Dime's tone. Pantera was so far ahead of their time, it's a shame it had to end so soon

Those vocals are as talented as 21 pilots... I'm saying it's a bad cover

its a good cover.

dad please

Amazing sound !!!!! Nice cover ^^

Im the 420th liker

Vocals are shit. Solos were shit. Rest was pretty good.

a que puedes hacerlo mejor no?

Lol that solo is the same! I bet you are just a fan boy!

Tyler Noble no

Nobody really sounds good trying to copy DIME, his style and techniques are his own, he was a monster player, one of the greatest ever, legendary player!!

The solos were great, as they were a tribute to the metal god that first played them. Don't worry though, I wouldn't expect people like you to know the meaning of a tribute.

i like this

Nailed it

this ending will forever be one one the best solos imo

Tibearius the king couldn't agree more

Why is people bitching so much about this? It's a pretty damn good cover, the guitar solo is pretty much 100% perfect, vocals are different but still pretty decent IMO, drums are perfect, bass is cool, what's the problem?

this rocks. no it isnt the origional but if i were to hear it like that for the first time id love it..so f u turds that dont know or understand music. i bet that more than half of u "critics" cant even play an instrument. enjoy your mom's basement....i did

Pantera fan boys are cancer, Pantera fans are the real troopers

Only one Dimebag!!

xHeavenHelpUsAll7771x the problem is it sounds like some kind of f****** pussy emo kids singing the s*** even the hard stuff sounds like s*** vocally it's f****** horrendous and a train wreck

@Stevie Wander the vocals are personal opinion bro caaaalllm down. In fact nobody had said it's better than the original. You're really just being a dick.

I hate this screams.

then fuck off.

the end solo doesnt sound right.

pantera is my fave band and i can honestly say this is a decent cover the vocals at first are a bit too much but it seems to blend in as the song proggresors and decent guitar too aspetialy for a band like these covering dimbag's guitar work is pretty decent well to be honest matt tuck and micheal paget are two evey underrated guitarists

Of course it's not going to be the same as the original, that's the whole point behind covering a song... They gave it their own twist.

PieroHD thats not the point actually. When you have a signature song and you try to put your own twist to it you just sound like a f****** idiot because that's the whole point of the original song and what makes it so badass so when you try to change it you sound like a f****** douchebag and rarely do people change songs and make them better. The whole point to covering it is because it's fun because it's a great song. One particular example that I can think of off the top of my head of a song that was actually improved by the cover is what you're doing by Rush that was covered by Skid Row on there b-side ourselves album. The whole album is great but only five songs long.

@Stevie Wander I like Killswitch's cover of Holy Diver better than the original

@Stevie Wander all of Elvis songs are covers. He made them way better haha

They adapted the song to metalcore....not bad

@Glass Dick Jones Thank you. I can't stand when people call BFMV metalcore. They're just heavy metal.

Nope. They're metalcore. They have more in common with Killswitch Engage than Pantera. Don't take that as me being a dick, I'm just being honest. It seems that you guys don't take pride in the metalcore label. Well, I came to tell you that metalcore is one of the most expansive genres in metal. So show a little pride. However, genres don't exactly matter. If the music is good, the music is good. That's all there is to it. If you like it, you like it. Don't worry about what the hell it is.

@Dirtyturtle10 DT10 have you even listened to their new albuns. Their first few were metalcore. Now they arent

@Gilbert Valdez Well yeah. That's because they changed. Originally, they were metalcore, and due to the prominent influence in their sound, they're still kinda metalcore.

The intro sounds like power metal then it transitions to something like deathcore/metalcore.

this is bullshit.

essa musica é foda man

They should re-do this cover. They are way better now than they were in 2006.

metal elitist False. Matt could never scream like this today

unscarred now this is where you're wrong :D

It was not matt screaming, It was their previous Bass player, Jason James...

Abel No it wasn't.

It was all three of them in this song. Matt, Paige, and Jason.

@The0MortalPlan Official it kinda sounds like it

dont people get it, this cover is bad because pantera fucking sucks

zeoalexo subtle pantera reference

Shots fired

Max Stolz this whole comment section is fired shots because people like panera bread more than bfmv

Vincent master bassist I like bullet more but who am I to tell people what band to like

Max Stolz I like them more too.

This sucks. So much for a good cover.

Everyone says this version sucks but honestly love it's just more DEATHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

This was really bad

Ernesto Soto Not as bad as FFDP's cover of A New Level

God damn it! I was so close to liking a cover from a 'Core band, but they just had to fuck it up. Everything was great up until the vocals. There not so much as screaming as most 'Core bands vocal's are, but he's holding the microphone so close to his mouth that he can't enunciate any of the lyrics.

@Saccrifix How? Just because I don't like a song from a band you like? Fanboys will be fanboys. 

+Zach Ritchie I hear yah i get hate from by buddies for enjoying this band my guilty pleasure i guess you listen to scream aim fire though?

You have no idea what you're talking about lmao, it's the vocal technique he's using that makes enunciation difficult, I would know since I use the same one.

Hey BFMV, if you cant hack it, dont play it.  Oh, and if you play this when you come to Austin in September, you'll be kissing beer bottles.

I respect bullet for paying homage to Pantera, but... you can't replicate Phils voice. I like the different sound in guitar but.. The original defiantly. I was excited to hear this but meh w.e   

Good cover, but the vocals just don't work at all. Only Phil Anselmo can be Phil Anselmo.

I think it was Jason James for most of the screaming

Steven Herrera yea..he sounds like a Homeless Tomboy with sour voice lol

That's why it's a "cover" bro. Lol

The point of a cover isn't to replicate the song, lmao. The guy wasn't _trying_ to be Phil.

I like this version, I've heard panteras version and honestly I prefer bullets, only because of the crazy rift at the end. I must loose 000s of brains cells when I listen to this from nodding my head so much!!! Rock on

Honestly, I've learned it's pretty damn hard to cover all lengths of Pantera tracks. Maybe Vinnie Paul on drums, but nothing can match Phils vocals, Dimes solos/riffs, or Rex' bass lines. It's almost impossible. Too damn impossible to touch. Give them credit for being influenced by Pantera. But this cover doesn't do me justice. In all honesty

The closest might be dan donagan from Disturbed. Dimebag basicly taught him every trick he knows now from when they were touring for ozzfest i believe it was.

another one could be Jerry Cantrell. Cantrell has so much magic on his solos. He's actually the one to blame when it comes to Damageplan. Both were on a car when pantera splitted up and dimebag showed jerry a few demos of Damageplan. Alice and Pantera used to be pal's from hell, Layne and Phil actually were together on Thanksgiving day back in 1998.

And for god's sake, let's not forget Zakk Motherfucking Wylde. In my opinion, he would be the best pick when it comes to a Pantera reunion.

They’re not doing necessarily for people to love it they’re doing for a tribute to one of the greatest metal bands of all time. They don’t give a fuck if you like it or mot

I came here with low expectations but I really like this cover. I might download it

I like Panteras way of doing the verses, but Bullets way of doing the chorus. Really good cover none-the-less.

I came in here thinking it would be a dog dick cover. It wasn't actually that bad. 7 out of 10.

Hey I don't like metalcore but not bad.

+TDG GAMING Thats Hardrock anyway.

This isn't metalcore at all, though. It's not even remotely metalcore, stop letting fucking google tell you what genre things are and use your god damn ears.

Actually it’s heavy metal

I like this version better than the pantaria one,but I like bfmv more to

Guitar- Great Drums- Good Bass- Good Vocals- TERRIBLE

To me it's absolutely unimportant, that BFMV ,,destroyed" it. The only important thing to me is, that I FUCKING LOVE THIS COVER. So please.. don't listen to the song if you don't like it, don't insult BFMV because they covered a ,,masterpiece", go listen to pantera again and don't insult BFMV if you only know one song. Thanks, bye.

This is awful. I'm ashamed I even listened to it.

even they wanted to perform this song through a new way
the original is still the best
and the cover of vocal is really not that impressive 
this song shouldnt be express by this kind of vocal
BUT still a pretty good tribute! Especially ive already lost interest in this band

Pretty awesome cover :D Bullet showing tribute to one of the greatest bands ever \m/ 

Pantera's was better, but this is good. Too bad Pantera's fans are mostly fanboys and girls that hate any band that covers Pantera now, sad really. Dime would be proud of Bullet for covering this beast of a song in his honor. Rock on Bullet fans. \m/ R.I.P. Dime \m/

@Dirtyturtle10 DT10 your taste in music sucks then bud

@Hiei Why do you say that? Just cause I don't like a cover? I mean shit, it's not even an original song. Go find someone else who you can actually talk shit to and have some ground to stand on.

I honestly prefer these vocals than Pantera's vocals

Hard to replicate dimes solos

F that, I love Pantera and I love this cover. BFMV does amazing covers.

Plz, its a very cool fucking cover, shut up and listen the fucking song. 

Wow, the vocals are just awful. He didn't even stay true to the original melody. I understand putting your own twist on a song, but u cant change a song fundamentally. This song did not originally have screamed vocals. but these vocals werent like slightly screamed. this was full screaming. and that just pisses me off. awful awful cover.

@***** Yeah shut the fuck up Samuel L Jackson, who the fuck asked you

The whole idea of a cover is to sing and play a song...in any style you please. It doesn't have to be a complete copy. The ignorance is strong in this one.

Not my point. i know it doesnt have to be a copy of the original. look at killswitch's cover of holy diver. fantastic cover. My problem with this cover is that it brings this covers is that the vocals are so mundane and hafl-assed.

i dont care how the screams sounded. i care that they were done at all. People assume with old metal that since its metal, u can just scream the vocals and it will sound similar. same thing happened with periphery's cover of one. it just doesnt work that way. they already changed the sound enough so that its their own, and matt tuck has a distinctly different style of singing than phil. he could have easily sing the vocals, perhaps with a little grit and made a much better sounding cover.

@guitarboy4000000 If im not wrong it's padge who screams through out the song it's just something he wanted to do.

holy crap. i just found this while trying to listen to pantera on my lunch break...
first time ever listening to anything from this band... horrible poser shit. why ruin such a classic song with a watered down pussified version.

it's just their cover.. in their style
of course pantera is way better, but they are different bands

One of the biggest metal bands from the UK and ur calling them posers? :S

you call that metal? lol

I never said that. Then again, it isn't their song, so I guess the song isn't metal then?

@TheGrabasspants Yeah can everyone just grow up? If you like it then listen, if you don't fucking good on you bro, don't listen? Lol it's 2014 and we're still having the same shitty argument on every youtube video.

vocals a fucking amazing! very agressive...

Dime is the master... Deal with it.

There is nothing wrong with the instruments o.O idk why people are bitching. the tones are better than Dimes and they made the drums heavier. And the solo is pretty much the same. The vocals aren't the best though.. but yeah. obviously some people can't get Dimecock out of their face for two seconds to realize the cover is actually decent.

omg this is one of the badest songs i ever heard.....dime would die again when he hear this omg....really???? ok bullet for my vagin (höhö) is for me shit but this is crrepy o.O

Wow. most terrible cover ever. terrible vocals, and terrible solo. guitars arent even heavy!

Butchered. With that bitch singing mixed with it. Fucking butchered.

Salty bitch. Do better

Wow if Dime were here he'd be ashamed

Of you.

No one asked you to reply to him.

Well, he's not wrong. This cover sucks. They should have worked on a song at their level.

No one asked for your bullshit opinion

BFMV you're dead to me, because of this cover. FUCK YOU ALL. You're not worth to make PanterA covers. KURWA!

u rooooooooooockkkkkkkkkkkkk

f****** awesome
