FRAYLE - Delivers Take On Soundgarden's "Head Down"

Cleveland (USA) based heavy witch doom act Frayle delivers a beautiful take on Soundgarden's "Head Down", fueled by the mystery of Gwyn Strang's haunting vocals and down-tuned frying guitars. The fast-rising doom act has furthermore illustrated this dark song with a stunning video which you can watch below.

"Soundgarden was an integral part of our development as musicians from an early age with brillant songs such as 'Fell on Black Days','Black Hole Sun', the list just goes on and on", singer Gwyn Strang writes and multi-instrumentalist Sean Bilovecki continues: "For 'Head Down', we deconstructed the song and switched its timing to 4/4. The song as recorded by Soundgarden has overlapping drum parts and complicated timings for example. We stripped it down and gave the track elements of tribal drumming, while we added layers of vocal harmonies and voices coming at the listener from all angles."

Parallel to Superunknown Redux, Magnetic Eye Records will release the by now customary companion album entitled Best Of Soundgarden Redux that contains further 15 cover versions of deep cuts and all-time classics from across Soundgarden's extensive catalogue recorded by more exciting artists. Link
