I’ve had this on Amazon pre-order for a couple of weeks already!

I’ve been a lover of this guy’s music for a while. His version of “Rape Me” is hilarious. One of his covers was used in the Dawn Of The Dead remake.

is this the same guy who did the “down with the sickness” cover in the recent “Dawn of the Dead” remake? Utter hilarity!
