One cut was a punk version of Blue Oyster Cult's "Godzilla". I cannot seem to find who the artist was or where to get it.

I check out Wiki and they had some groups with covers listed, but it isn't Racer X, Fu Manchu, Sebastian Bach, or Fighting Gravity. Its not the Smashing Pumpkins either.

One big distinction from those cover is that the version I heard was very fast and all these covers listed have the original BOC slow beat.
