Listen: Los Campesinos! Cover Blink 182’s ‘Going Away To College’

! have shared a cover of Blink 182’s ‘Going Away To College’. Performed for SiriusXMU Sessions, it’s not the most unlikely covers - Gareth Campesinos! and co. could’ve covered R Kelly, for instance - but it’s still a bolt out of the blue.

After airing the cover on radio, the band posted to twitter to state: ‘We’re massive Blink fans, as proven by this image of the Blink tattoo Jason gave himself ON THE PALM OF HIS HAND. We hope you dig it.’

The cover’s quickly gained a fan in the form of Blink’s Mark Hoppus. What a guy.

@LosCampesinos great take on the song and i’m honored that you follow exactly 182 people as a special tribute to us.
