[img=020512_fobnfg.png]Late last year we posted about New Found Glory covering Green Day's "Basket Case" on their recent tour. Alternative Press have dug up an older cover of the song by Fall Out Boy and have begun asking their readers who's cover is better.

To vote head on over to AlternativePress.com and write your vote in the comment box at the bottom of the page.

Personally I think that both bands did an exceptional job covering the song. I think that I would have to vote for New Found Glory's cover of the song, only because I saw them on their most recent tour. What band gets your vote? Let us know in the comments!

Thanks to Sarah for sending this news.
