(WATCH) Jersey Rock Video of the Week: The NPCs – “Superman”
Cranking Out Super Cool Covers Faster Than A Speeding Bullet!
It’s a band! They can play! They’re The NPCs!
And it will take a lot more than a pocket full of kryptonite to stop this collaborative musical effort. Formed in the midst of a live music shutdown, the ever-expanding group released their debut single in July. Like an infinite Megazord, more and more pieces keep attaching to this over-the-top cover-producing machine. They’re back with another epic release and this time they have 56 artists lending their talent to the effort.
The NPCs cover of Goldfinger’s “Superman” was put out to honor the release of the remastered Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+ 2. It is a truly super cover, with the video to match. Goldfinger agrees. The originators of the track shared the NPCs video on their official facebook fan page, writing “This is rad!”shortly after it’s release. Bullets will definitely bounce off that seal of approval!
