Weekend Poll: How Do You Feel About Bands Re-Recording Their Old Material?

Metal bands re-record old material for a variety of reasons. Meshuggah (partially) re-recorded Nothing a few years later due to their unhappiness with the original mix, while Testament re-recorded The Legacy and The New Order material for First Strike Still Deadly due to copyright issues preventing them from reissuing the originals at the time. Then there’s Manowar who re-recorded Battle Hymns and Kings Of Metal decades later because they’re Manowar, and the Cavalera brothers out there currently reclaiming their old Sepultura material.

You get the idea. Old material gets re-recorded sometimes for a variety of reasons. So we’ve got one question for you this weekend – how do you feel about metal bands revisiting their old stuff? We’ll close out this poll at 9am on Monday, May 27 and publish the results later that day.
