Uncured have issued their own take on Nine Inch Nails‘ enduring strip club anthem, “Closer“. The via ‘nü-metalcore pioneers’ spoke with via Loudwire Nights about their stab at this track, which appeared on Nine Inch Nails‘ 4x multi-platinum industrial industrial metal pillar, “The Downward Spiral“.
Uncured vocalist Rex Cox stated:
“The thing with this one is we did not just want to do a straightforward cover of it. I think some of the ones we’ve done in the past have been relatively predictable versions of that cover and this time we did not do that. This one we just did kind of whatever we wanted to … It was so good and iconic that we weren’t trying to recreate it. We were trying to pretend that song was written for us.”
A new Uncured EP by the name of “Warpath” is being lined up for an early 2025 release.
