Not really covers, but if you're looking for a chill approach to metal/rock, you might like Pelican or Russian Circles. Both are kind of ambient rock/metal, but no lyrics, and the instrumentals are on the relaxed end of the spectrum... like you know how a normal metal song often has a more mellow intro, then all at once the tempo takes off, the volume skyrockets, and a howler monkey starts calling for a mate? ...they're like entire songs that have that intro energy.
Fantastic background music.
This was a bit of a happy accident, not really what I was looking for but still ended up being very cool! I hopped around a bit between both artists' top songs and I think this could be great music to work to also when the howler monkeys would otherwise be a distraction!
