10 Amazing Rock Cover Songs You Haven't Heard Before

3. 3TEETH - Pumped Up Kicks (Foster The People)

Originally released by Foster the People in 2010, 'Pumped Up Kicks' is a classic example of a punchy, popular song with a dark hidden meaning. This contrast between upbeat vibes and a subtle harrowing message made it one of the 2010's most commonly heard songs.

Another one of the lesser known bands to appear on this list, 3TEETH are a modern, crisp sounding industrial metal band who embrace several elements from electronic music. 3TEETH's haunting and strangely engrossing cover of Foster the People's 'Pumped Up Kicks', is certainly one of 2019's most underrated songs.

Released as the closing song on the band's 2019 studio album, 'METAWAR', this ambient take possesses an alarming atmosphere which suits the narrative of the song perfectly.

As far as 3TEETH are concerned, this cover was a phenomenal success, as 'Pumped Up Kicks' is their most streamed single on most streaming platforms and currently has over 650,000 hits on YouTube.
