The trailer didn't really do anything for me, but the new video looks good:

To be honest. I didn't even watch the trailer. I just know there are some fans of the band in here and figured they would be interested. That type of music is really not my thing. In fact much of the news stories I post are on bands that I know nothing more than some people have talked about them.

After listening to Theocracy's Mirror of Souls several times It has been cemented as one of my all time favorite power metal albums.

Other than the vocals, which were pretty bad, I don't see how this is a bad cover.

The vocals were atrocious. The music was bland. It was a paint by numbers cover, they did nothing to put their own stamp on it. Unless horrible vocals and vanilla styling is their stamp. Otherwise mission accomplished. I can't say I have heard a worse cover in recent memory, and I am including the KSE cover of Holy Diver.
I know you have a soft spot for their early work. So I understand why you may feel the need to take it easy on them.

All this is true, but by doing nothing other than playing the song how it was originally written does a bad cover make. Really bad covers are the ones that try to rewrite the song and in turn butcher it. Calling this the worst cover ever just doesn't make sense to, most pointless cover maybe, but not worst. Oh and I don't take it easy on them, that album is god awful. In fact this cover is probably the best thing on it haha.
