GWAR have reworked Ryan Gosling's emo rock ballad I'm Just Ken from the Barbie movie, performing We're Just GWAR, for AV Club. The first guests to take up the challenge of performing an unexpected cover for the relaunch of the pop-culture publication's iconic cover series Undercover (think triple j's Like A Version, but in the USA), GWAR went all-in on the segment, penning new self-referential lyrics to the song and beefing up the instrumentation with some shock rock chops. As for why the band agreed to the challenge, it seems it came down to vocalist BL0thr's longstanding love for Ryan Gosling. 

Ascendant Naarm/Melbourne heavy crew Future Static have dropped the metal/reggaeton crossover of the millennium with their take on Daddy Yankee's 'Gasolina'.
