A New Take on "Rock Lobster" – System of a Down style [1]

['Mark Frauenfelder']

Date: 2023-10-17

Mac Glocky is a YouTuber and musician who takes requests to play popular songs as though they were covered by bands unlikely to actually cover those songs.

In this instance, he plays The B-52's breakout hit, "Rock Lobster," in the style of System of a Down. It's excellent.

Just yesterday, I watched the B-52's 1980 appearance on Saturday Night Live. I was intrigued by Ricky Wilson's guitar playing. The middle two strings were missing from his guitar. I found a video that shows how to tune and play your guitar to perform "Rock Lobster."
