Rating--7.2

Bruce Dickinson -- The Zoo
Wrestling tunes and themes from ECW, and there are some interesting little remix/version covers here.
Kilgore provides a solid mold of Pantera's "Walk," and that opening groove is undeniable! Also, Grinspoon's cover of Prong's "Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck" is tough as well.
You want nasties? Try Bruce Dickinson doing the Scorpions "The Zoo". What more can you ask for?!?
Megadeth provides a steady and flowing instrumental version of "Trust," and there's some heavy ZZ Top in "Heard It On the X," performed by some of the Pantera dudes. Last but not least, Muscadine covers AC/DC's "Big Balls," and if anything, makes it an even more laid back and devil-may-care tune.
A worthwhile little ride.
