Pure Noise have teamed up with Pabst Blue Ribbon for a new compilation album, Dead Formats Vol. 2.
The follow-up to last year’s Vol. 1 (obvs), the upcoming 15-track record is due out on September 5, and will hear Pure Noise artists cover the likes of Slipknot, Elton John, Linkin Park, Jawbreaker and more. To celebrate the announcement, three renditions have already been shared: Less Than Jake covering The Kinks’ Come Dancing, Knuckle Puck doing Losing A Whole Year by Third Eye Blind, and Nirvana’s Lithium getting the cover treatment from Lalalove.
“PBR has a long history of engaging and supporting artists so for us to be able to work with Pure Noise is really special,” enthuses Josh Feingold, Senior Director of Marketing Partnerships. “We love this concept and knowing that the artists involved had fun putting this together makes it all rewarding. We hope it’s a record that inspires discovery and nostalgia from the legendary comps.”
