Amid their extensive touring slate this year, Return to Dust have dropped their take on Outkast's smash single "Hey Ya!" For their cover, the band called upon Puscifer's Mat Mitchell to help produce the synthesizer parts, and the result is a trippy, shoegaze-y listen.
On the subject of the track and the reason behind covering it, the band offer:
"Our love for the '90s and '00s music goes further than just rock music, so we made our own heavy version of 'Hey Ya!' by OutKast."
