Looking for mellow covers of heavier music - Lemmy.World

A few weeks ago there was a post asking for suggestions for female fronted heavy music [https://lemmy.world/post/28825432] and I was really grateful to OP for starting the conversation and everyone in the comments for coming up with really great suggestions. I’m wondering if we could have a similar discussion to share more mellow covers of heavier songs. Usually when I’m working I prefer listening to less intense songs and a chill cover of a heavy song I like is somehow very interesting to me. The song that got me wanting more of this niche was a cover of Toxicity [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vb53_ni1BqI] which I’ve had on repeat this week. I can also think of this cover of Seven Nation Army [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5itnXtgd4PA] which is kind of similar as an example but I don’t really know a lot more like this. Does anyone have any similar recommendations they enjoy?

Fuck the World” by Richard Cheese - cover of the Insane Clown Posse song in a “lounge” style. I think Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine does a lot of covers of “heavy songs” in that style but I dunno much about them: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Cheese

Richard Cheese’s version of Slipknot’s People = Shit must be the funniest song I’ve ever heard.
