ÆGES is a band that knows how to knock it out of the park. If you’ve seen them live or heard their latest album Above & Down Below, you know exactly what we’re talking about.

The band’s sophomore effort Above & Down Below came out this past September, and it crushes from start to finish. If you haven’t purchased the album yet but are planning to buy a vinyl version of it, it comes along with a digital bonus EP that features some cover tracks.

You’ve already heard the cover they did of Big Data’s “Dangerous.” Here’s another rendition — this one is of Elliott Smith’s “Needle In The Hay.”
