Hardcore heroes Turnstile have performed an unlikely cover version of The Stone Roses' classic track I Wanna Be Adored.
The Baltimore, Maryland, group chose the track for their appearance on triple j's Like A Version series and said it felt appropriate after the recent death of Stone Roses bass player Gary 'Mani' Mounfield.
Watch the performance and an interview with Turnstile singer Brendan Yates and guitarist Meg Mills below.
Yates says: "I love this song. It's one of my favourite songs of all time. It's unconventional and simple and just beautiful.
"We've done covers for years. We've done different covers live, a lot of bands. But this was a different experience because we got to lay it down in a studio. It felt good to, especially when on tour and playing your songs every night, to break from that and play someone else's."
Mills, who hails from England, says she hopes people like their version of what she describes as a "powerful" song.
"One of the most iconic bass lines of all time. I think it's so powerful in its simplicity," she says.
"It seems like a really fitting time. With the passing of Mani, it felt like a really appropriate time to pay homage to him.
"As a Brit, The Stone Roses were one of those bands that every kid who had any inkling towards anything alternative just knew from such an early age – just such an iconic band and, in my opinion, probably the coolest of all of the Manchester bands coming out at that time."
