Stone Sour are previewing their versions of “We Die Young” from Alice In Chains and “Heading Out To The Highway” from Judas Priest, off of their five song Record Store Day exclusive EP Meanwhile In Burbank on April 18, 2015. The EP was recorded live at Room 237 in Burbank, CA. Stream it below.
Stone Sour guitarist Josh Rand commented on the EP:
“Back in February of 2014 while Stone Sour was touring, Corey [Taylor, vocals] approached me about Stone Sour doing a cover of the Metal Church song ‘The Dark’ for the movie ‘Fear Clinic‘. I thought it would be cool not only to record ‘The Dark’, but the five cover songs that we had played on that tour.”
Rand added:
“The idea was not to shy away from a song because it was popular or pick a band that most people might not have heard, but to pick ones that truly meant something to one of us at some point in our life.”
Meanwhile In Burbank… track listing:
01. We Die Young (Alice In Chains cover)
02. Heading Out To The Highway (Judas Priest cover)
