BLINK-182 - Quarantine - Drum Cover
@blink182 have released a new two-minute ripper about life in lockdown aptly titled “Quarantine" and I was so excited, I got on the kit this morning and created this drum cover!
The track boasts a rugged, chugging verse that opens up into a big sing-along chorus. Lyrically, there’s plenty of vintage Blink-182 snark, with Mark Hoppus opening the song with, “I guess I’m blessed to be so f**ing bored,” and later throwing out lines like, “Quarantine, f**k this disease/I’d rather be on Star Tours or stuck at the DMV.”
But the chorus boasts a distinctly political edge, as Hoppus’ voice turns to a sneer as he bellows: “It’ll disappear in April, just like a miracle/We don’t need social distance, we don’t need old people/So throw the shop doors open/Save our economy/We don’t need ICU beds or PPE.”
@travisbarker was vintage with amazing speed and pure punk style beats.
