New York post-hardcore trio Show Me The Body have teamed up with Popular Front for their cover of The Beastie Boys' classic "Sabotage." The video combines live footage of the band's pop-up show in London’s Southwark Park (presented by Popular Front) with archival footage from the independent conflict news organization. Lead singer and banjoist Julian Cashwan had this to say:
"I support and consume independent journalism in general, but full disclosure, I am a straight up a fan of Popular Front. Their crew does hard work to tell true stories, or as they put it 'honest reporting.' To work together on 'Sabotage' is a self-fulfilling prophecy. New York band with a New York song reaching out to the world at war with a message of love and solidarity."
First covered at a surprise show at Tompkins Square Park in August 2023, this official release comes just weeks before the band's Body War 10th anniversary show at 99 Scott in Brooklyn on October 17th, coinciding with the album's special anniversary edition vinyl. The show's lineup will also include Roc Marciano, Wiki, Fatal Realm, Baby Osama, and Ferment.
