Madi Diaz Re-Recorded Blink-182’s ‘Enema of the State’ To Benefit Immigration Legal Aid

The singer tracked her "Garden State" version of 1999 pop-punk classic while working on her just-released "Fatal Optimist" album.

Madi Diaz pulled double duty while recording her recently released seventh album, Fatal Optimist. In addition to laying down her own songs, the singer also recorded a track-by-track cover of Blink-182’s breakthrough 1999 album, Enema of the State.

The collection — dubbed Enema of the Garden State in honor of the location of the studio — is available only on Bandcamp, with proceeds earmarked for the Defending our Neighbors Fund, which provides legal assistance to immigrants in the midst of the Trump administration’s massive immigration enforcement actions.
