Under The Covers With Mayhem – Chapter 9 October 7, 2024


Here comes Under The Covers With Mayhem Chapter 9. This is a metal take on the Backstreet Boys huge hit “Everybody (Backstreets Back)” by sublime Finnish metal band Blind Channel, they have slightly edited the title to “Everybody (Bloodbros Back)”. This is a fabulous and banging take on what I think I have to admit was already a great pop song. Now it has been transformed into an exceptional metal track. I dare you to try not to move when you listen to this, it is hugely infectious!

The band said this about the single “Over 10 years ago we were starting our career as a group of teenagers playing energetic metal while being dressed like 2010’s Justin Biebers. People started calling us a ‘boyband trying to play metal’. We chose to embrace what was originally meant as an insult. Now it’s time to turn this absolute boyband classic from our live shows to a full-on studio version with low-tuned guitars and modern nu-metal vibes. Instead of ‘original and sexual’ we are ’emotional and miserable“.

Constant readers know that my ideal cover version has a different slant from the original rather than just a facsimile-style cover. So the generic boy bands are probably never likely to feature, but you never know, right? Feel free to recommend any songs that you think should be included in Under The Covers With Mayhem. I want to stay clear of the mainstream ideally, but off-the-wall covers by major artists might work too πŸ™‚ Oh, and there will, of course, be an Under The Covers With Mayhem Playlist soon! Honestly πŸ˜‰
