World premiere: The Walking Wounded - 'Assimilate'

The Walking Wounded today unveil their cover of the Skinny Puppy classic 'Assimilate'. The band, always willing to push boundaries, take the song from it's industrial roots and tanspose it to an orchestral setting. 

"It is our great pleasure to present to you our cover of Skinny Puppy's "Assimilate," featuring cellist Jackie Gee.  We know the rulebook says "Thou shalt not cover Skinny Puppy," but when the idea struck to do an "orchestral " version of the song, the temptation was too great.  This cover arose from a sincere love for the Skinny Puppy's masterpiece - the sonic majesty of which still remains unchallenged."

The song can be heard below via the band's official Spotify account.
