Actually, they did the whole album! It was released on cassette, but then quickly taken off the market due to threats of lawsuits. Four songs from it appear on their "best of" CD. They were one of the very first bands to cover an album from front to back. (Wasn't Sonic Youth the first? can't remember what album they did though.)
This also brings to mind Claw Hammer covering Devo's first album.
And about 100 Ramones tributes:
Screeching Weasel did the Ramones
The Queers did "Rocket To Russia"
Vindictives did "Leave Home"
Mr T Experience did "Road To Ruin"
Parasites did "It's Alive"
Boris The Sprinkler did "End Of The Century" (this one SMOKES!)
The McRackins did "Too Tough To Die", as did John Cougar Concentration Camp

Did Between the Buried and Me get mentioned? They have one called "Anatomy" and personally I don't like, but a lot of others do.
