Pantera, Slayer, Mastodon, Trivium Members and More Lead ’99 Bottles’ Benefit Cover
Has anyone ever finished the "99 Bottles of Beer" song? It certainly takes a while to get through, but if you had some of metal's finest doing it, it might command your attention a little longer. With that said, a who's who of the metal world have united to cover the track as a fundraiser, helping out older dogs to find foster homes in the process.
99 members of the metal community each took a verse, with representation from such acts as Pantera, Slayer, Mastodon, Trivium, Butcher Babies, Dillinger Escape Plan, Down, Broken Hope, Eyehategod, Arch Enemy, Crowbar, Type O Negative, Sepultura, Fear Factory, Hatebreed and more. Gruesome bassist Robin Mazen, Derek and John worked together to unite this collective under the moniker The Boozehounds.
The full version of the song arrives today (Aug. 26), coinciding with International Dog Day. Proceeds from the track will go to Old Dog Haven and The Heartlands Foundation. There's also a GoFundMe page to help fund Heartlands Foundation contribution to Old Dog Haven. See a full list of all participating artists below and you can pick up the song via streaming platforms now.
