Red hill mining town cover by some band

[AussieU2fanman]

Has anyone heard the cover of Red Hill mining Town? I found it on Kazaa and I want to know which band did it. The vocalist definately isn't Bono but the rest of the band might be the same. Its a very good version with an great solo at the end. Anyone know anything about it? thanks

It's probably the crappy pretentious wannabe-artsy version by Dream Theater. It's nothing special but a butchering of a great U2 classic.

Cheers,

Yea Dream Theater they have covered Red Hill Mining and Bad, wannabe prog-metal.
They have a few ok original songs but nothing extraordinary.

Luka Bloom did Bad too. I guess it's an OK version if you like an acoustic, folky, Irish sound.
