Exclusive: The lead track from ZZ Top’s new EP: I Gotsta Get Paid

Just got paid (again): ZZ Top

Leaked to the world via an advert for Jeremiah Weed’s alcoholic ginger beer, new single I Gotsta Get Paid nods to 1972′s Just Got Paid – and that says it all, really. Forty years on, this is ZZ Top re-tooled for Generation 2.0 but, weirdly, the same as they ever were.

Big hairy grooves, whiskey-scorched vocals, guitars crunchier than a taco full of nachos… and a sense of humour drier than an Arab’s sandshoe. Proper good.

From the Texicali EP, out on June 5.
