Back in December, it was announced that Stephen Malkmus and L.A. hair metal vets L.A. Guns were going to be covering each other on a new single for Matador Records. The single is a part of the new Matador subscription series, which is be hella exclusive, which is why it took this long for the Malkmus-led cover of L.A. Guns to hit the net. It's streaming now as part of a radio show, and you can hear it at the 1:48:10 mark over here. Malkmus plays "Wheels of Fire," and apart from removing the weird guitar effects in the background, it actually sounds a lot like the original. Listen to the original below. [Via Stereogum]
