Check out Alorion’s cover of Linkin Park’s Faint

February 24, 2016

Alternative rockers Alorion from Southern California have truly caught my attention with their recent cover of Linkin Park’s Faint. Alorion comments about the cover, “We chose to cover Linkin Park because for some of us, it was that first bridge into rock music. We also share a similar dynamic with the two different styles of vocalists in the band. We thought it was a great idea to nod to a band that’s so influential into what we are doing and why we are here, all while creating something new with a song we love.” Check out the cover here: I hope after you check out the cover, you pick up the debut EP from Aloron “Between Calm & Chaos” which was recorded by Tom Denney (A Day To Remember). You can get the EP by heading over to iTunes here. Make sure to visit their social media sites as well to stay up to date on their latest news. ~ Marisol Information & Links: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alorionband Twitter: https://twitter.com/alorionofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alorionofficial/
