Do you remember when Britney first dropped "Toxic" on the world? Man. I swear a mushroom cloud went up from the MTV broadcast tower. A whole new set of adjectives had to be invented to describe its deadly energy and catchiness (not to mention Brit's complete reinvention of eye-popping sexiness in the video). And Britney, decked out in nothing but rhinestones, laid it all down without ever breaking a breathy whisper.
A Static Lullaby see things differently than Britney Spears did. But what do you expect from a pack of Orange County post-hardcore kids who've toured with The Used and Killswitch Engage? Whispers? Rhinestones? No.
In their explosive Pop Goes Punk 2 cover -- you can stream the entire album on "The Leak" tomorrow! -- they take all of that sexed-up potential energy and unleash it, fully-dressed with its septum pierced, in every stomping, screaming chorus. Pop goes punk as f*#$! Watch the world premiere of A Static Lullaby's "Toxic," RIGHT HERE.
