The National frontman Matt Berninger has released a cover of New Order‘s ‘Blue Monday’. Check it out below.

He’d previously covered the 1983 hit while on tour in support of his recent solo album ‘Get Sunk‘.

Now, he’s released an official studio version, which sees him trade the track’s recognisable synths and electronic drum beat for an acoustic kit. It was recorded at Los Angeles’ Knobworld with production from ‘Get Sunk’ producer Sean O’Brien. Check it out below.

It’s not the first time Berninger has paid homage to New Order, with The National previously releasing the track ‘New Order T-Shirt’, which appears on the band’s 2023 album ‘First Two Pages Of Frankenstein’.
