Their (E)motional (S)upport (C)are (P)ackage is out now.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are reportedly getting married in New York City this weekend, and Sleep Theory have already given the happy couple their gift. Following the Memphis, Tennessee quartet’s recent, chug-forward revamp of *NSYNC’s “Bye Bye Bye,” the group have now delivered a rocky take on TSwift’s “Cruel Summer.” The cover arrives today (July 2nd) as part of Sleep Theory’s new (E)motional (S)upport (C)are (P)ackage EP, which also includes the aforementioned take on “Bye Bye Bye” and an adaptation of Paramore’s “My Heart.” With “Cruel Summer,” Sleep Theory play it reasonably straight. Their take on the tune, which was original found on Swift’s Lover album from 2019, is transposed to a lower key that fits better with their crunching power chord arrangement and Cullen Moore’s lower vocal range. The frontman also flips the gendering a touch while singing about the “bad, bad girl” at the center of his summer. Sleep Theory likewise fit the cover with a summery vid where Moore is singing in a pool floaty as the rest of the shades-wearing Sleep Theory are either getting tattooed or bashing out the track in a backyard amid plastic pink flamingos. Roll the dice or roll your eyes, Sleep Theory’s “Cruel Summer” video can be peeped up above. The full three-song E)motional (S)upport (C)are (P)ackage EP is out now via Epitaph.
