Here's one I like: it's Led Zeppelin's 'Kashmir' by a Czech band called Silent Stream of Godless Elegy. They play doom metal influenced by Moravian folk music and deserve a wider audience.
Survivor's 'Eye of the Tiger' by Withering, on the other hand, is not so good. A rock anthem with growl vocals just sounds, well, silly. I should point out that Withering, a death/doom metal band from Finland, are actually pretty good. They're not unlike Insomnium, a favourite band of mine. (I've seen Insomnium live twice, and they were excellent on both occasions.)

Heh, definitely odd ...
"It's the ... Oye of the Toiger, it's the thrill of the foight ..."
Might have been better if he'd sung it in a typical death/doom key than trying to actually sing it with a silly voice.
