Sharks have paid tribute to Joey Ramone on the 10th anniversary of his death.
The Brit four-piece uploaded a cover of the Ramones' 'Life's A Gas' on April 15 as a tribute to the late musician, which you can scroll to hear below.
"In commemoration of a special talent and a kind soul we recorded a rendition of 'Life’s A Gas', one of Joey's last songs with the Ramones," said the band.
In related news, Sharks will play a final UK headline show tonight, April 19, at the Actress & Bishop in Birmingham before heading out to the States for a summer tour with Social Distortion and a slot on the coveted Warped Tour.
"Once we finish all of our touring overseas, we will be starting work immediately on our first [full-length] record," they said. "We're planning to make a good record, but not a great one, otherwise our second record will be terrible in comparison."
