Dead Cross - Rise Above (Black Flag cover)

Dead Cross - Rise Above (Black Flag cover) created in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement and staunchly opposing police brutality and systemic racism. As such, the track opens with a recording of a Los Angeles resident voicing his displeasure with the LAPD during a public comment period from a regularly scheduled LA police commission meeting.  

Dead Cross, the hardcore supergroup that unites Faith No More frontman Mike Patton and Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo with Retox’s Justin Pearson and Mike Crain, have shared a cover of Black Flag’s “Rise Above.” In a statement, Dead Cross write that their rendition was “created in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement and staunchly opposing police brutality and systemic racism.”
