US Heavy Fuzz Rockers ALMOST HONEST Release New Cover of The Beatles’ ‘And Your Bird Can Sing’
For the song “Wait” we wanted to take our influences in Red Fang and Alice in Chains and bring them into this cover/reimagining. This is what we came up with. We kept the vocal harmonies relatively the same so it would give it the same feel. We reworked the riff to make it sludgy with a pinch of grunge. We also wanted to have a shredding solo at the end which was not in the original. We created a riff to go behind it. We wanted that riff to slowly fade to give the listener time to reflect.
Much like the previous song we wanted to cover/reimagine “And Your Bird Can Sing” and we brought our Baroness and Greenleaf influences into this. This is another lesser known song. It already had great leads and harmonies so we just wanted to capitalize on that but build a strong foundation with a punchy stoner rock riff. We really wanted to stay more true to the original on this as we believe having that as the base would let the song breathe and allow us room to add our flavor.”
Helmed by the darkly dulcet guitarist Shayne Reed, driven by the jungle rattling bassist Garrett Spangler, lifted up by the immense leads of David Kopp and powered by the ent-war thump of drummer Quinten Spangler, Almost Honest has evolved into a rock act to be reckoned with.
Focusing the energy they would have put into extensive touring during the past two years and using ritual druid magics, they conceived, wrote, and recorded a brand new album whose details will be revealed soon.
Almost Honest is poised to deliver more of their unique, creamy fuzz soaked, metallic prog-funk potion, with a riot punch live show that Pennsylvania head bangers have come to crave as soon as the world is ready!
