Abandoned By Bears has delivered a previously unreleased track, an absolutely infectious cover of The Jackson 5’s ‘I Want You Back.’ The smooth Motown classic smacks you in the face with a dose of easycore, then kisses it and makes it all better with its worldly recognized lyrics. The track comes as the Swedish punk mob begin their inaugural UK tour tomorrow.
“We chose this song because it brings back so many memories from our youth,” shares drummer Max Fahlman. “It would be a complete lie if we told you that Michael Jackson didn’t inspire us in our songwriting. The way he grew up as a child star to become the undisputed King of Pop, his legacy has touched artists of all kinds – musicians, actors, poets, and the general world of pop culture. It’s nearly impossible to name a bigger star from his era. This is our way of thanking and honoring him.”
The track is available at Apple Music, Spotify, Google Play, Amazon Music and everywhere digital music is sold.
