Watch Against Me! Cover the Mountain Goats’ “The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton”

During their performance for House of Strombo—a new concert series from Apple Music hosted by George Stroumboulopoulos—Against Me! performed a cover of the Mountain Goats’ “The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton,” off the band’s 2002 album All Hail West Texas. “I’m going to play one cover just because I feel so inclined to do it and because I’ve been really into this song lately,” Laura Jane Grace announces, “This is a song by one of my all-time favorite songwriters.” Watch it below, starting around 42:22. 

Against Me! have also made their 7” single for this year’s Record Store Day available for streaming. Below, listen to the songs “Stabitha Christie” and “First High of the Morning.” Both tracks come from the sessions for Against Me!’s most recent album, Shape Shift With Me. The band is currently on tour behind that album through the rest of the year, featuring dates with Bleached.
