Italian progressive metal band METHODICA have unveiled their version of the Amy Winehouse classic ‘Back To Black’. The band have released their rendition of the hit single on the 10th anniversary of Winehouse’s death and it’s also accompanied by a kinda creepy video depicting METHODICA as marionettes. You can watch it below.
“This is our modest tribute to Amy; our expression of love for her and her art,” says METHODICA’s singer Max Piubelli. “We chose Back To Black because we have always loved Amy Winehouse’s art, she was one of the most talented artists ever seen. Her music is magnetic, happy and sad at the same time, you listen to these songs and you can feel Amy’s heart: she was very truthful, her lyrics were her feelings put to music.
“The hardest thing was to make a cover that had to be respectful of the original and reflecting our musical style at the same time. We hope we did it well.”
The five-piece are currently composing their fourth album, which is set for release in 2022.
