Datach'i The Regulator

• Words: Julian Fane
• Label: Sublight
• XLR8R Rating: /10

This Bad Brains cover is a track from Datach'i's forthcoming album 13. Joseph Fraioli takes Bad Brains' original hardcore sludge and beast-whips it into lo-fi digi-punk. This is one of the few covers I have ever heard that not only stands up to the original, but carries its themes forward in a completely complimentary direction. The track is so good; it's just too bad it's only one minute long. Just play it 10 times in a row like I do.
