Whereas the creamy slide guitar riff in the original version ends in the intro, Le Zok sees no reason to stop the ear candy that started so well, and in this alternative rock reality, the slide guitar continues its rumbling until the end.

The band takes us on a journey to an alternative turn of the millennium, where the mood of the hit song is not defined by an electronic hip hop soundscape, but by shameless rock ‘n’ roll riffs. However, the song gets the respect it deserves, and the enigmatic lyrics get even more attention when sung with raw clarity.

Le Zok is a four-piece band from Helsinki, whose music can be described as alternative rock drawing influences from a wide range of sources. Blending experimental directness with unconventional structures, the band is not that easy to categorize. Their organic and just gritty enough sound features elements of garage, psychedelia, grunge, and 1970s new wave rock.
