Epic. Cinematic. I first heard this amazing cover of the Simon & Garfunkel classic on an episode of The Blacklist. It was the perfect soundtrack for the gripping and spiraling episode. So many cover songs are just glorified karaoke-fests. But Disturbed unleashed a newfound power in the song, a new meaning without changing a single word. They took “The Sound of Silence” and made it entirely their own.

“Hello darkness, my old friend. I've come to talk with you again. Because a vision softly creeping left its seeds while I was sleeping.”
