In one of the more unexpected moves from the indie music scene this year, New Delhi metal band Undying Inc‘s Nishant Hagjer has unveiled a cover of South Korean group BTS‘ track “Fake Love.”
In the video released via his personal YouTube channel, Hagjer presents his rock-infused take on the septet’s 2018 single “Fake Love” from their third studio album Love Yourself 轉 ”˜Tear.’ In the description the drummer states he “never listened to the genre but became a massive fan of the group after watching their music videos.” The most striking moment in the cover comes right after the final breakdown; Hedgar inserts a quick pause in the track before thundering into an impressive display of his skills.
His statement and cover come as a surprise not only because of the vast differences between K-pop and metal as industries and genres, but also because of the disdain fans of each genre have towards the other.
