Video: Members of Carcass, Periphery, Revocation, Kvelertak, and More Cover Anthrax’s “Caught in a Mosh”

The latest entry in the “Bedroom Covers” series curated by Two Minutes to Late Night host Gwarsenio Hall (né Jordan Olds) is also the thirty-fucking-fourth entry in that series. Because that’s how long this pandemic has been going on.

Sigh.

ANYWAY, this time out Gwarsenio recruited some very talented friends to record a characteristically beefy and entertaining cover of Anthrax’s “Caught in a Mosh.” Said friends include:

• Erlend Hjelvik (Hjelvik, ex-Kvelertak) – vocals
• Dave Davidson (Revocation, Gargoyl) – guitar
• Mark Holcomb (Periphery, Haunted Shores) – guitar
• Aaron Patrick (All That Remains, Bury Your Dead) – bass
• Daniel Wilding (Carcass) – drums
• Dwid Hellion (Integrity) – vocals
• Shawna Potter (War on Women, Panamama) – vocals
• Jordan Olds a.k.a. “Gwarsenio Hall” – vocals
• Mary Houlihan as “Valerie Carcrash”

As is almost always the case with the “Bedroom Covers,” they’ve taken some most excellent measures to make the song their own; there’s a short black metal section now, for example, and Davidson basically ditches the first half of Dan Spitz’s guitar solo in favor of simply being his awesome self.

The video is a hoot, too, of course. Highlights include Houlihan’s spot-on riff on old school MTV VJ Downtown Julie Brown, Potter’s choice of location from which to film her portion of the video, and Hjelvik’s adorable Pomeranian.
