Relient K K Is for Karaoke

Long running Christian pop-punkers Relient K are releasing their covers project ...Is For Karaoke in two different forms: a digital/Warped Tour exclusive EP version will be available this summer, while a full-album version drops this October. The concept of a pop-punk band adapting songs of various genres to their style is a time-honored tradition. Just take a look at Hopeless Records' divisive yet long-running Punk Goes... series for proof. On ...Is For Karaoke, Relient K take on hits from Weezer ("Surf Wax America"), Tears For Fears ("Everybody Wants To Rule The World"), Justin Bieber ("Baby"), and a seemingly obligatory version of the infinitely covered "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley.
