American hip-hop artist K.Flay has released a cover of Green Day's Brain Stew. It's the second track on a new cover EP, Don't Judge A Song By Its Cover, which also includes covers of The Offspring and Limp Bizkit. Listen to the song below.



I wanted to put these three songs in a totally new context and really expose the vulnerability of the lyrics. Each cover is a reimagining of a 90s rock hit that was heavy, aggressive and male-fronted. But when you break them down, they are SUPER EMOTIONAL. So this is me celebrating an era that’s had a huge influence on my career, and kind of excavating the emotionality I found in these iconic songs.

- K.Flay

The EP is available on streaming services and can be downloaded from iTunes and Amazon Music. Choose how you want to listen here.
