The deluxe version of Scar The Martyr contains a cover of 
‘Complications’ by KILLING JOKE, which appeared on their self-titled 
debut in 1980. “It’s a super, super catchy song. It’s got four chords to
 it, including the chorus. It’s one of the simplest songs from one of 
the most important bands of the post-punk era; I like everything about 
that song! It’s so hypnotic. Of course I brought up the tempo; the 
Killing Joke version is a lot different. It’s more flow-y, and this is 
more of a charge. I metalled the fuck out of it! But at the same time it
 almost doesn’t sound like a metal track; there’s no lead guitar solo, 
nothing complicated about it. It’s ironic me saying complicated, but I 
just love the words to that song. Killing Joke is one of my favourite 
bands, ever. I’ve wanted to cover that song for 15 years. I’m not really
 into covers, but something about that spoke to me. So when I was in the
 studio, I did two takes of it. It’s not a hard song, but I was so into 
it. I made it heavy as shit, but still kept the natural feeling and I 
think it turned out cool. It was fun to do.”

The only place I could find the cover track is on a skeevy Vietnamese torrent site that I wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole. I'll post it if I ever find a clean copy.
