From Batching It's debut album "Homage". Reeko as originally performed by NOFX.

Batching It is a one-man punk-rock cover band featuring Rob Ivey, a San Francisco East Bay musician. Hailing from Vallejo, CA, Rob was previously in Vallejo bands Bottomdawg and The V-Town Have-Nots , and also played drums in Diabolical Exploits with veteran punk-rock producer Andy Ernst, who has produced such notable bands as Green Day, Rancid, and AFI.

The name 'Batching It' is short for 'batcheloring it', or 'going it alone', which perfectly describes the philosophy behind the project. After many years of not being in a band, Rob's nostalgia kicked in and he decided that it was time to make a cover album of influential bands/songs, songs and bands that inspired him to become a musician in his teenage years. The first Batching It project, due out in the Fall of 2009 on Leficit Records, is called 'Homage' - a self-explanatory title. Rob wanted to pay tribute to these bands and songs by reintroducing them to the new generation, and covered in Rob's personal favorite styles.

Recorded at the legendary Art of Ears studio in Hayward, CA by Andy Ernst, and produced by Mike Lawson of Leficit Records, 'Homage' is a 15-track nod to, in Rob's opinion, 15 awesome bands: NOFX, Skankin' Pickle, Swingin' Utters, Pearl Jam, Rancid, Lagwagon, Metallica, Sublime, No Use For a Name, Smashing Pumpkins, Weezer, No Doubt, The Descendents, Less Than Jake, and Operation Ivy. Crossing rock genres, just like Rob's personal tastes, 'Homage' should have something for everyone.

really good nofx cover! lemme say though, the autotune on the voice on the lyric "leave and not look back" didn't sound good to me, other than that EPIC

(plus, this is just the fanboy of me speaking, i dont see why it did't say "leave and never look back" like it originaly was, not saying that ruined it just saying it made me think)

[batchingit]

Thanks! It's not autotune though, it's a doubled vocal :)  Also, take a close re-listen to the original version - it says "leave and not look back."

And I thought I was the only person who really liked NOFX.

Never thought anyone could make the solo any cooler than it already was. Good show mate.

[gwarfan1point5]

wow , im not a huge fan of this style ( only because its hugely overdone and usually done pretty Genericly and stale ) but this sounds fucking amazing! im glad to hear a band in this bracket that actually plays well . Plus not destroying a NOFX song is always a huge plus ...thanks for this , my ears are happy.

deleted my asshole comment.

Bass is fucking killer in this version!!!

I like how even though you switched this song up built on a lot of the existing musical themes.....
