Black Map have paid tribute to two of their favorite artists with a medley.

The band dropped a medley of Billy Idol’s “Eyes Without A Face” with U2’s “Exit”. Vocalist Ben Flanagan said this about the medley, which can be seen below:

"We had wrapped up the recording of our forthcoming album and still had the bug to create. At rehearsals we started jamming on covers from bands that influenced us in various ways and this whole thing just really came together .We wanted to be ambitious and combine a couple great songs that we felt would blend in a way that allowed us to put our own stamp on. While the album is getting finalized we wanted to give fans something special to enjoy before dropping new original music, which is right around the corner.”

Black Map’s forthcoming album will be released later this year. The group will be performing at the Aftershock Festival on Friday, October 7 alongside Metallica, UnityTX, and Suicidal Tendencies.
