Watch Five Kids Do a Killer Cover of SLAYER's 'Raining Blood'

15 February 2018

The noted heavy metal icon Whitney Houston once crooned, "I believe that children are the future. Teach them well and let them lead the way." The group of kids in the video below appear to have been taught well, and it looks like metal's future is, indeed, quite bright.

The kids are vocalist Kaden Karns (age 14), lead guitarist Eli Dykstra (age 15), rhythm guitarist John Fowler (age 14), bassist Bailey Couch (age 15) and drummer Curtis Moss (age 18). They were brought together by the O'Keefe Music Foundation, who set them up on a recent afternoon at Refraze Recording Studio in Dayton, Ohio, to record SLAYER's epic 'Raining Blood,' with a little help from five year old Annika Miller (on the thunder tube) and seven year old Logan Miller (on the rainstick).

Their version is shockingly tight, but that's because the guys have spend a good amount of their young lives practicing.

The recording session was organized by the O'Keefe Music Foundation, an organization that provides children with the opportunity to professionally record their music for free.
