Mothman and The Thunderbirds are proud to announce the upcoming release of their cover of the CKY classic “96 Quite Bitter Beings”. What starts as a relatively straight-forward cover goes off the rails halfway through, and then lands at a stunning final bridge. The song will be available on all streaming platforms on September 28th.

For this cover, Mothman and The Thunderbirds bandleader Alex Parkinson enlisted the skills of Russian prog musician Egor Lappo for production duties. “While I enjoyed producing my debut album Into the Hollow, I figured it was time to take my sound to the next level,” said Alex when asked about hiring Egor for production, mixing, and mastering.

Speaking on the origins of the cover, Alex had this to say: "Growing up in Delco in the 2000’s, this song was inescapable. I’ve always wanted to do a cover given how much I love that riff, and I think I’ve finally arranged a version that does this classic justice."
