GBI - DAVE GROHL, CHARLIE BENANTE, SCOTT IAN ANNOUNCE THEIR COVER OF BAD BRAINS’ “THE REGULATOR” SET FOR AN APRIL 20 RELEASE - JUST IN TIME FOR RECORD STORE DAY!!

Anthrax had been recording the last batch of new songs for their next album at Grohl’s 606 Studios, and Foo Fighters were camped there as well in rehearsals. Grohl had stopped by Anthrax’s studio to say hi and check things out, and at one point, lan texted Grohl and suggested the idea of all of them getting together to record “ The Regulator.”

Charlie, the point person for all Anthrax-related project art, came up with the idea of having the three of them popping out of a jack-in-the-box in front of CBGB.
“I had started to think about the old days of CBGB and my love for toy collecting, and everything just fell into place.”

“We ripped ‘Regulator’ live in two takes,” said lan. It was so much fun to get to play with Dave on drums and to hear his voice with my guitar. We’re all such huge Bad Brains fans - hope you all get a copy.”

GBI! Release date 4/20/24! It’s a Record Store Day exclusive - only 3000 pressed!

Here’s the story: Anthrax were recording our new album at 606 and the Foo’s were there rehearsing at the same time. Dave had popped into the studio to hang and listen to what we were doing and we’d gone over to hear the Foo’s rehearse.

Scott texted Dave the next morning and said: “Hey! Good to see ya the other day. Are you rehearsing today? I’ll be there doing guitars.
Wanna record a Minor Threat song? Bad Brains?”
He replied immediately with the Spotify link for The Regulator.
Scott said he’d be there at 12:30pm and Dave said, “See you at 1.” It was that simple.

We recorded at 606. Charlie and Scott asked Dave if he’d play drums and sing as well, he was in. Charlie plays bass and l’m on guitar. did the badass art for the cover. GBI!
The spark to do this was to raise money for HR’s healthcare. All the proceeds will be donated to him for that. And what better day to do it than Record Store Day? It helps Indie stores as well, win/win.
We ripped Regulator live in 2 takes, the way it should be! It was so much fun to get to play with Dave on drums and to hear his voice with my guitar! We’re all such huge Bad Brains fans and have asked WWBBD? (What would Bad Brains do?) many times.
Hope you get a copy!
