Grindmother Releases Cover Of System Of A Down Track ‘Forest’
Written by Johnson Stephen on March 9, 2021
The Canadian Grindcore band fronted by 72 year-old namesake vocalist Grindmother, have released their own version of the 2001 System Of A Down classic ‘Forest’.
Guitarist Rain Forest comments “My Mom and I recorded this song back in 2018, but I never finished the music until now. A few months ago I decided to try writing completely different drum beats for the song and at that point it really started to take on a life of it’s own.”
Grindmother began her Grindcore career by accident in 2015, when a video of her trying to scream into a microphone went viral. Several months later, she released the song ‘Any Cost’ which featured music by her son Rain Forest. The response was so overwhelming that they recorded a full album ‘Age Of Destruction’ in 2016 and toured consistently over the next couple of years.
A video for the song, which features a guest backing band comprised of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie Sanders and Jagmeet Singh, is available to watch via Youtube and here’s the Link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6QJvO1Pozw
