-(16)- are streaming their cover of Black Flag’s “Beat My Head Against The Wall.” You can check that out below. The track is from on the band’s new covers album, “Forgeries Vol 1 (1972 – 1984),” which will be released on May 1. Vocalist/guitarist Bobby Ferry said the following about the single:
“Black Flag’s ‘Beat My Head Against The Wall’ was my first real fracture. Punk stopped being us vs them. They turned the blade inward. It became me vs. me, and in retrospect, this song served as the template for the whole inception of (16). We formed in 1992, only eight years after this song was released. A majority of the notes we play can be traced back to this. Instead of ripping it off for 34 years, we finally surrendered and just covered it.”
