Eagles Of Death Metal - God Of Thunder

Thursday, time for a cover.

"God Of Thunder" is a song by KISS from their album "Destroyer". The song has also been featured on many of KISS' live albums, including an up-tempo version on "Alive II". Many various sound effects were used to make the song including explosions, clapping, zippers, overdubbed audience chatter, and screaming children. The song was written by Paul Stanley, who intended to sing it on the album, but producer Bob Ezrin suggested slowing down the tempo and handing the lead vocals over to Gene Simmons.

Indra, the Indian/ Hindu God Of Thunder.

Polytheistic peoples of many cultures have postulated a thunder god, the personification or source of the forces of thunder and lightning; a lightning god does not have a typical depiction and will vary based on the culture. In Indo-European cultures, the thunder god is frequently known as the chief or King of the Gods, e.g. Indra in Hinduism, Zeus in Greek mythology, and Perun in ancient Slavic religion.

Today's tune and the cover is made by EAGLES OF DEATH METAL, taken from their cover album "EODM Presents Boots Electric Performing The Best Songs We Never Wrote", takes in a wide range of influences from GUNS N ROSES’ "It’s So Easy" to Steve Miller Band’s "Abracadabra" and George Michael’s "Careless Whisper", enjoy!
