Skid Rows Sänger ERIK GRÖNWALL hat ja schon so einiges an Coverversionenen veröffentlicht aber an die Metal Gods hatte er sich bisher noch nicht rangetraut. Bisher, denn vor einer Stunde hat ERIK seine Version des Priest Übersongs `Painkiller` veröffentlicht. Musikalisch umgesetzt haben den Song Love Magnusson und Erik Modin (Wildness).
ERIKs fragender Kommentar dazu lautet: „Is this the most bad ass metal song ever?“

Lyrics:
Faster than a bullet
Terrifying scream
Enraged and full of anger
He is half man and half machine
Rides the metal monster
Breathing smoke and fire
Closing in with vengeance soaring high
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Planets devastated
Mankind’s on its knees
A savior comes from out the skies
In answer to their pleas
Through boiling clouds if thunder
Blasting bolts of steel
Evils going under deadly wheels
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Faster then a laser bullet
Louder than an atom bomb
Chromium plated boiling metal
Brighter than a thousand suns
Flying high on rapture
Stronger free and brave
Nevermore encaptured
They’ve been brought back from the grave
With mankind resurrected
Forever to survive
Returns from Armageddon to the skies
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Wings of steel Painkiller
Deadly wheels Painkiller
Ah
He is the Painkiller (killer)
This is the Painkiller (killer)
He is the Painkiller (killer)
This is the Painkiller (killer)
Pain, pain, killer, killer
Pain, pain, killer, killer
Can’t stop the Painkiller
Pain (pain)
