Motionless In White have shared a cover of The Killers’ ‘Somebody Told Me’ via Roadrunner Records.

The band’s frontman, Chris Motionless explains: “During quarantine we wanted to continue to see what new projects we could push ourselves to create.

“We’ve always wanted to take a shot at covering an iconic alternative song, and ‘Somebody Told Me’ has always been one of those tracks that oozes pure energy, and has crazy good hooks that we felt we could transform into a great rock version. We are very happy to present this cover as one of the projects birthed out of the Covid downtime and hope it’s fun for all fans to check out and tap their feet to.”

This is a faithful cover of the track but with the expected heavier gothic tint. It may not pop and sparkle like the original but it more than makes up for it by bringing a harder edge to the track and with Cerulli’s vocals, his usual dynamic mixture, doing the song justice.

Check it out, here.
