Amazing work as always guys 😁
Thanks! I know it is not you yourselves that put the songs on Spotify, but do you guys happen to know when the "Like a Stone" cover will be there? It is one of my favorites, =).
My challenge to them is a RHCP cover, no idea how it would go
But when will it be on iTunes? I need this! Edit: It IS on iTunes! SCORE!!
Can you cover some Italien bands? Hope to see it :p
I am totally getting Linkin Park vibes from this
I was also thinking of Chester shouting "maaad woooorld". ☺️
The funny thing is, I always got annoyed when my brother would compare a new song to sounding like Linkin Park. But this time, I expect him to.
Yeah, the power chord intro sounds like What I've Done. Same chord progression and close to their sound + similar drum groove also
@@DaP84 indeed
What I've done + New Divide :)
Me: I love this song
Melodika bros: oh sorry man, how about now?
Me: dies in bliss
You and me both, mate.
There's an armcannon cover of this too that mixes it with the Gears of War theme. Hella awesome
Buildup was literally Linkin Park!
"I remembered black skies
, the lightning all around me,
I remembered each flash
, as time began to blur"
For some reason it made me think of REM, but you know what, you're onto something here.
Yesss
@@jabelzebub1451 Exactly my thought too! Awesome mix by these guys ;)
Yeah, that's totally true...👍🏼
I love Linkin Park!❤️
Completely agree ♥️
Its truly is a mad world rn
Chipotle Southwest Sauce : best name ever
Especially in Italy, where these guys are from :(
Especially now
@@foihdzas Why? Its a weird name. Sezchuan Sauce would have been better.
In America, things are getting really intense now. :( I hope good change comes from it, though.
This made me think that "everybody wants to rule the world" in the same style (or way too happy) would be really cool
"Everybody wants to rule the world" is my favorite song of all time. With that said, I would support it being turned into a highly processed, bubblegum pop song. The lyrics are about corruption and thirst for power, something we're still seeing too much 35 years after the song's release. Yes, the song is pop-ish already, but I'd listen to a cover dripping with saccharine sarcasm.
Everybody wants to go to War.
Lorde does a FANTASTIC cover of Everybody Wants to Rule the World.
They are both from the same band (Tears for Fears)
I'm thinking a too-happy ska cover of Shout
"The world is on fire, we hope you aren't"
let it burn, let it burn....
I'll bring the marshmallows
My world's on fire, how about yours? That's the way I like and I'll never get bored.
After the first couple breaks I keep expecting to hear "in this farewell there's no blood there's no alibi"
Cause I've drawn the truth from a thousand lies

I was just thinking that!!!
@@genaralapple4908 we're all reddit in this time and age.
@@MrKeplerton that's deep and all but like
What
this song is perfectly shows how mad our world at the moment
Dude I've never heard these people before and I'm still early. The hell? These guys are great
you should look more of their vids, i recommend that ;)
Glad you found them! They're still criminally under-subscribed considering the quality of their content, but it's growing steadily :)
You totally should check em out, and more important, SPREAD THEIR GREAT WORK
This ain’t really metal... their Bad Guy cover, now THAT is metal!
wait, your comment made me realise that it isn’t an old video, what
how about CARELESS WHISPER ( WAY TOO SEXUAL)
They usually do the opposite so it'd be way too sad.
@@christofferlarsen8034 Pero en este caso... ¿No te picaría la curiosidad cómo los hermanos Melodicka se las arreglarían para volverlo aún más sexual? Yo pagaría por ver eso.
@@christofferlarsen8034 The song really is more sad than sexual if you pay attention to the lyrics
I would love a real sad version of it, too. Sth like way too tragic and uncheesy... LOL
XXX XXC yes
Since I started taking an audio production class, I've come to realize just how consistently excellent yours is. Thank you for your art.
Can't wait to blast this in my car on the way to work
flyingsidekickp Sounds exactly like me.
Lyrics
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head, I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad world, mad world
Children waiting for the day, they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher, tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad world, mad world
Enlarge your world
Mad world
*"They are loving and a...sexy."*
I found the *slaps cheeks* in the thinking time immensely enjoyable, especially when it seems to signify 'sexy'. I might you use it from now on: oh she's quite *cheek slapping moment* sexy
Bellissima
Finally, a cover that isn’t slow and depressing
I wish I could share this with my friend who died 13 years ago. He would have loved this. I wish he was still around to enjoy it. I just wanted you to know this was more than cool to me...it’s so well done and I just wanted to the world to know that this guy existed
I hope he passed before he knew you'd use his death as a way to get likes for yourself.
When the mad world makes u mad
"destroying classics" - bah! That was a fantastic cover!
Like they could really destroy a song? Smh
They don't destroy them, they upgrade them.
I know, when do they start destroying them? I'll have to watch their library to find out...
I wouldn't call this destroying a classic. The style fits the song really well, and you guys are awesome. Hope you're doing all right.
The various covers of Mad World all sound like the varying stages of depression. The faster tempo (usually a rock or metal cover) sound like the mania that often occurs when angry or frustrated while being depressed. The slower (usually piano driven) versions sound like the nihilistic crash after the mania where you're teetering on the edge of succumbing to the depression.
"I'm too sexy" way too platonic version.
I feel the whole song had a sort of linkin park vibe going through it especially the opening it was like listening to what iv done.
Awesome cover as always :)
Instead of Linkin Park, I thought of Blue Man Group's Up To the Roof! ("I'm taking the fire escape... up to the roof...") but maybe in writing this song, BMG meant to sound like LP. After all, it's the exact same chord progression!
One of my favorites non metal songs. Would you dare with a metal cover of Gloria Gaynor's "I will survive"?? Greetings and courage from Spain... Forza Italia!!
Sometimes this song sound like The Offspring- Gone Away.
Thought the same
I was listening to it trying to figure it out and yeah it does!!!!
I kept expecting to hear "I reach to the sky/And call out your name!"
Yep, I got strong Offspring vibes from the opening drums
I'm so ecstatic to see a cover of the Tears For Fears song and not the Gary Jules cover, it's a good version but the original sounds like it has so much more anger and frustration in it, and you really brought that out here. Thank you for blessing my life with this.
You should hear palaye royals they do good
THANK YOU! I've been saying for as long as I could remember that Gary Jules's version sounds like some sad whining, but everyone can't seem to not respect the old man's version which is a good thing so I always just let it be
Yeah I just went thru half a dozen cover videos on YT and all of them, up until this one, follow the glacially-paced Gary Jules arrangement. I prefer the original's uptempo arrangement, and was really glad to hear someone-- anyone-- do an uptempo cover
I got chills. This is dope. You guys kick ass!!
Those deep vocals are so satisfying on the ear. Rock on legends 🤘
I really want original music from you guys, you are amazing
Am I the only one that thinks The intro souds like 'What I've done' by Linkin Park.. but great job
Broken record, but... Depressing Footloose? Lovely job on this one guys! Fantastic style.
IM IN LOVE WITH THIS COVER NAILED IT!❤
Sad acoustic song + metal cover = 2000's Emo Rock!
No doubt that in 2007 EVERYONE would have this song in their ipod shuffle!
The cover we all wanted and needed.
Yes.
I tend to love metal/rock covers of older songs, sometimes even more than the original. You guys didn't dissappoint, keep up the awesome work.
I wonder how 30 Seconds To Mars would do a cover of this song. Their take on Stronger was just brilliant.
Appreciate the hell out of your creative efforts during a crazy time. Love your work
YOU ARE INCREDIBLE!!!😍
I AM SO GRATEFUL THAT I FOUND YOU!!!
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO!!!!❣️
this is the first song that does NOT sound like a destroyed cover. Maybe it's the bleakness of the text, maybe the arrangement. Excellent job!
You can't destroy a classic if you play it with feeling and talent :)
I´m having a drink on this. Salute, Fratelli!
Stay safe and well Bros!!!!! We really need your covers now to keep us sane, especially when your covers are insane!!!!🎷🎺🎸🪕🎻
An amazing cover of of one of my fave songs! So expressive & unique- You really have something!
When is this song going to be available? Its awesome and I need it.
This is the greatest sound to reach my ears in MONTHS. You guys rock, keep doing awesome stuff. My wife, my 2yr old son, and I, love everything you put out, awesome takes on songs we love. All of us here hope you are healthy and so are your loved ones, take care!
Everything this guy touches turns to gold.
Never noticed how clean Dave's skin was until now. Give me that night routine brotherrrrr.
Wow. this is an awesome cover.
I'm glad you guys are doing good enough to still continue making great Videos and help us all through these hard times
That scream at the end was legit.
FIRE IN THE UNIVERSE ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Please do we Will Rock you. Maybe way too country ^^
A way too sleepy version would be pretty punny.
This song lends itself to any genre really well. Stay safe over there
I was surprised at how techno sounding the original is and not too radio friendly by that time. It was more a throwback to the early 80's sound.
You're absolutely incredible
Delightfully, this song even endures/survives this kind of treatment and, does not suck.
when the world can travel again we need a concert
The instrumental gives me a Linkin Park - Leave Out All The Rest feeling, I like it.
WHY ARE MELODICKA BROS SO UNDERRATED?!?!?!?!?!?!
Huge Linkin Park "What I've Done" vibes from this, great cover.
usually, I don't enjoy hard music, but this one is really well composed
You guys are absolutely amazing and fucking crazy to take one of the most beautiful and calming songs and make a metal version of it.
But it bloody ROCKS!! Keep up the great work!
"Calming"
"Mad World" is goddamn heartbreaking, not so much for relaxation as it is a meditation on grief, if I'm remembering the right song.
The Gary Jules version is not the original, the original is really mad world, not sad world 😄
Really Love that Song.
0:17 a straight combination of New divide, What I've done and a light that never comes on this intro. I'm getting Minutes to Midnight vibes!
Idea: Abstract Metal
Lye By Mistake or Sunn O))) could be considered two different takes on what "abstract metal" could be.
So heavier than average Prog? Or like Mastadon. Maybe Gojira? I'm pretty sure there's Stoner Metal. Definitely Tool.
It's pretty much been done if you know where to look.
Morgan Robinson abstract metal is perfect for Tool.
@@Postdotfuzz lmaoooooo lye by mistake. What a small world.
Igorrr
Ok this is definitely one of my favourite covers you made, if not covers in general. This is amazing!!!
That riff starting at 2:38 is so freaking awesome!
I love the original song and was curious about hearing an alternative and I'm so very glad I came across this!!
The intro made me think of a Linkin park song, a real experience as always! Keep it up guys!
Amazing. As always.... I say that every time, but it remains true... You bros ROCK!! Thank you for creating and sharing your music. Love love love love love it.
That new divide, linking park vibe, is soooo good!
At first I'm thinking metal version, NO WAY, instead it blew my foors off. Totally rocked it out👍🤘
Everithing feels like the movie "Groundhog Day"....Thank you guys for beein out there an making Things make sence :)
Daaamn, it was hot! When I read the title, I thought it would be ordinary guitar-like cover with distortion (even though I knew you guys do excellent stuff, sorry for disbelief, but most "metal covers" people lack of imagination), but boi, I glad I was wrong.
Grazie dall'Ucraina!
as soon as the 1st verse kicks in I WAS SOLD !!!
Stay safe :) Hang in there. We love your work
This sounds a lot like Offspring's Gone Away guitar-wise
oooooh so thats the name of the song playing in my head, thanks
I could not disagree more. Sure, they're both playing power chords on 8th notes most of the time but that's 99% of hardrock/punk songs The timbre is so different! The Offspring song has a lot more highs and mids in the tone, referring to the EQ; it's "bumped." The Bros here are utilizing a "cut" tone and it sounds world's apart to me. I think the offspring is using tube or analog amps as well, because their sound has a lot more clarity and attack, while The Bros. are using modern, digital amplifiers, resulting in more even dynamics and a denser distortion; at least, that's what is sounds like to me. I would compare the guitar tone in this track to a lot of post-hardcore from the early 2000s.
@@Postdotfuzz You know, taking your time to write all that, some might call it weird.
But I think in a way what OP said resonated with you... You heard the power-chord on the 8th note and could see that, but by noticing that you started to notice all the things that's different.
You must really care for music huh?
@@fernandocillo8905 i actually think it's the drum sound design and the way they are structured that make it sound like gone away in my opinion although the guitar does on occasion give me a pang of gone away but i think that's more to do with the chords used than the guitar sound. but i definitely hear it too.
Agreed- definite “Gone Away” vibes.
Ive been listening to the og daily for 6 months feeling something coming
UNCHAINED SHAMAN people have been saying “something’s coming” for centuries. But now, they may be right. Pandemic, unhinged world leaders, rising pollution and climate change. We’re in for a bad time. And unlike the Bronze Age Collapse, there won’t be easy resources just lying on the ground to start over again.
@@gryphon0468 We've survived worse pandemics & worse leaders. Also, pollution has actually decreased worldwide, and we're actually using less resources to get more energy nowadays.
We really are a lot better off now than at any other point in history.
This weirdly enough sounds like New Divide. And now I'm picturing a Mad World and New Divide mashup. Thanks for letting us know such a mashup is possible. It'd be pretty cool, methinks.
Whoa! His accent with the lyrics and it being metal fucking awesome! Great cover! Best cover I’ve heard!
This is killer!
I would love to see you all do Danger Zone as a folk song 🤣
someone make a music video for this where it shows how the lyrics for this truly mimic the panic and confusion, and sitting in place we're doing rn. literally just grab videos from the internet about covid-19 that demonstrate the lyrics.
You guys destroyed this in the best way possible! Thank you.
I've been watching videos, shows, and playing games. I wish you and your family the very best! Stay safe and keep making music.
I love your guys covers. Happy to see you guys are ok. It sure is a mad world right now. Listening to you guys makes me feel so happy, I love the songs you guys do. Stay awesome guys and stay safe. 🤘🏼😊
Music was fabulous, but at times I felt like the singing needed some badass growl. Not much I imagine just on the "Mad World" line would be enough. But other than that great work as always! Love your covers, bros, you're my favourite music cover channel!
Not necessarily growls, but a bit more passion^^
world is on fire? Are we getting a "Wicked game" cover soon?!
That ending 😦👌🤘🏾
Wow, I randomly searched for a mad world metal cover and this is the way I found it. It's funny that I didnt see the notification.
This is so sick dudes, I really love it!
How long before we see this in Google Play Store? Glad I mafe it to the premiere! This is awesome!
So glad to know you are safe and healthy!
This song is my son's favourite lullaby
This is literally What I've Done in the beginning.
Theres only 12 notes in music,there is bound to be similarities to all songs eventually.
More like New Divide
Still waiting for barbie girl on deezer :'(
Keep up the awsome music but please put all of them on deezer also 😭 pritty please with suga on top!
Me too!
We use a music distribution service that apparently takes a lot of time to upload on deezer... Sorry bros! It will get there too.
u guys give a song what it really deserves, woooow!!!
Awww, thank you. You're beautiful too!
it really sounds like linkin park, it sounds really nice ! Good job, once again !
AND IT FEEEEEEELS!
AND IT FEEEEEEEELS LIKE
HEAVEN'S SO FAR AWAY!
Donnie and the complete Darko family must be so proud of this.
Can't listen to this song without flashbacks to gears of war. Still a nice song though :)
Brought to you by Death Stranding... or was it Monster Energy?
Stay healthy! You are my light in this Mad World. Please keep singing in Italy!
I adore you guys so much!
