Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante, Death Angel vocalist Mark Osegueda, and Metal Allegiance bassist Mark Menghi have teamed up in quarantine to cover Mother Love Bone's 1992 track "Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns".
Here's what Benante had to say about the cover.
"What if? I always ask that when I listen to Mother Love Bone, Would Andrew Wood have sung 'Release' or 'Why go'? Would that TEN album have been the next MLB album?
"I remember sitting in Lonn Friend's @instadude74 office when he got the Call that Andrew Wood had Died. I couldn't believe it, WTF?? I thought that band was going to have a long career…well some of them did.
"What A great album; to this day it's one of my favorites. 'The Chloe/Crown of Thorns' song is a stand out, it's so perfect.
"A few years ago I did a version of Chloe Dancer with Mark Osegueda @bonsloth and Mark Menghi @markmenghi at a @metalallegiance show. I think they both capture the feel and emotion on this song .
"I always thought I never really finished or felt fulfilled and I wanted to do a better cover of it. Since I've been doing these jams this song has always been on my mind. I get goosebumps when I play it, it's weird and emotional.
"I hope you Dig it!"
