It’s pretty much a foregone conclusion that the song of the summer this year is Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky.” The retro song by the French duo has crossed far beyond the EDM world, becoming a top 40 hit and appealing to fans of alt, disco and indie rock. And metal too, apparently. Peruvian guitarist Charlie Parra del Riego, who plays guitar for Kobra and the Lotus, teamed up with Norwegian singer Pellek to cover the song. It actually works pretty well as a power metal cover, but a good song is a good song, and it’s over before it starts to wear out its welcome.
