The Isotopes Pick Your Brains, the eighth studio album from the long running instrumental combo, was released in 2021 and continues their tradition of celebrating all forms of instrumental rock. It follows a well-received covers collection from 2020, Duck and Cover, containing versions of songs from artists as diverse as Bruno Mars, Glenn Miller, Aha, Lil Nas X and Mozart and sprinkled with TV and movie soundtrack favorites. Surprising covers have always been a staple of The Isotopes’ legendary live shows, and so have dancers, lights, and picking confetti out of your drink.
