Sleep Theory are continuing to prove that no song is off limits, surprise releasing their new covers EP (E)motional (S)upport (C)are (P)ackage alongside a brand new video for their explosive reimagining of Taylor Swift’s Cruel Summer.
Released via Epitaph, the three track collection sees Sleep Theory putting their own spin on some of pop’s biggest hits, blending crushing guitars, soaring melodies and frontman Cullen Moore’s powerhouse vocals into familiar tracks that feel entirely their own.
Leading the release is Cruel Summer, with the accompanying music video arriving just in time for the Northern Hemisphere summer, while Taylor Swift’s original became one of the defining pop songs of the decade, Sleep Theory transform it into a soaring modern rock anthem without losing the emotional punch that made the original so beloved.
