Whores is now streaming their cover of AC/DC's "Have A Drink On Me" featuring Mastodon vocalist and guitarist Bill Kelliher. The song is off Magnetic Eye Records' upcoming Back in Black [Redux] covers album featuring Red Fang, Howling Giant, Heavy Temple, and many more.
"I grew up listening to AC/DC, like everyone else", said Whores vocalist and guitarist Christian Lembach. "They were one of the first bands I heard that felt like a real rock and roll band, totally divorced from artifice. I still listen to them regularly, and we start every tour with 'It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)' because it's true.
"AC/DC are one of the most important bands in my life. I was a little concerned with the song that we covered, because it's very different from our style. We just asked ourselves, 'What would Harvey Milk do?'. It was pretty easy after that."
Back in Black [Redux], as well as its companion AC/DC covers album Best of AC/DC [Redux], is out December 3. Pre-orders are available here.
