Most metal artists and metal fans respect original country music artists and their songs. I'll listen to Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton but that's about it.

I am a huge metal and industrial fan myself. I'm super enthusiastic about cover songs as well. Here's a few that are in my regular rotation.

1. Jack White's cover of Dolly Parton's "Jolene". Dolly Parton likes Jack White's cover version.

2. Marilyn Manson's cover of Johnny Cash's "Gods Gonna Cut You Down".

3. James Hetfield's cover of Waylon Jennings "Don't You Think This Outlaw Bit Has Done Got Out of Hand".
