Midnight julkaisee ”Steel, Rust and Disgust” -coveralbumin

Yhdysvaltalainen yhden miehen yhtye Midnight julkaisee covereista ja parista alkuperäiskappaleesta koostuvan ”Steel, Rust and Disgust” -albumin 23. toukokuuta Metal Blade Recordsin kautta. Albumilta löytyvä toinen alkuperäiskappale ”Cleveland Metal” on nyt julkaistu kuunneltavaksi musiikkivideon kanssa.
Athenar kertoo kappaleesta:

”’Cleveland’ and ’metal.’ Those two words flow together like molten steel. This title was directly taken from a compilation album of the same name released in 1983 on Clubside Records, pre Auburn Records. The song was written as an erotic love letter to the cursed city whence I was thrusted upon and its fellow inhabitants of subhumans.”

Athenar taustoittaa albumia:

”The idea to record an album of all cover jams with a certain theme is nothing quite new. The original title for this album was gonna be Throw Ups as an homage to the David Bowie’s Pin Ups album, also of covers. Although Throw Ups is only two syllables and I need six. I guess I could’ve called it Throw Downs Throw Outs Throw Ups, but that would be just fucking stupid.

”I just wanted to record some songs by bands who shared the same sights, sounds, and sewage of my region of birth,” he continues. ”Some of these tunes you may have heard, some you may have not. So please, do yourself a favor and check out the original versions… if you want to transform into a total fucking slimebag that is!”
