5FDP meets Offspring

[Murgatroy]

I have worn out few CDs over time. The Offspring's Ixnay on the Hombre is one of them. (Chevelle's Wonder What's Next and Sublime's Self Titled is the third.)

 

I have recently become a massive 5FDP fan. They are dedicated to their craft. They rock. They are devoted to veterans. I can't even begin to count the songs they have put out dedicated straight up to veteran causes. I think they might be alone in the pure effort they are making. Much love for that. Period. Your cup of tea of not.

They released a new song yesterday (today for me still,) and it is a cover of The Offspring's Gone Away.

 

I dare you to keep a dry eye.

Yes, Thank you for sharing Murg.

Oh man. Thanks.

As you inferred, not my style of usual listening; but a very strong song/video combination.

Great band, great cover song. I hope Moody can get past his substance abuse.

My oldest daughter loved their cover of Bad Company when she was little.

My playlist is full of 5 Finger. Good stuff.

Wow. My brother was in a Humvee in Iraq that hit an IED. He was the only one out of 4 that survived. This video, especially the end, is eerily similar to what he went through. I'm not sure I should send it to him but thank you for sharing.

House of the Rising Sun is a very meaningful song to me. 5FDP's cover of it IMO is the best version. Over Leadbelly, The Animals, anyone. And the video (produced by Steve Darnell of Welderup) is my idea of heaven. Or hell depending on how you lived your life.  It is my personal ringtone. And as soon as I find a version of this song, it will be my ringtone on my second phone.
