Ash - Clones
‘Clones’, Ash’s first single from Top 5 album ‘Meltdown’, was released as an Internet-only download in February 2004 and went straight to number 1 in the newly created download charts. ‘Meltdown’ - the band’s fourth full length album - was produced by Foo Fighters producer Nick Rasculinecz and recorded at Sound City Studios, the birthplace of Nirvana’s Nevermind.
During the writing of ‘Meltdown’ Ash were asked to provide music for LucasArt's game Star Wars: Republic Commando, by complete fluke the band had just demoed ‘Clones’. ‘Clones’ featured in the game and Ash played a set, which includes ‘Cantina Band’, at the games launch party in London’s Leicester Square.
The dark and gritty performance video was directed by Jeff Thomas and shot in East End London with the band drenched by a crew member with hose between takes.

I don't know what's weirder, a guitar with a Decepticon logo in a music video for a song that tied into a Star Wars game or this being a 1080p video from 2006.
One of my dreams is that EA reboots the Republic Commando game and uses this song in the reveal trailer...just the way my mind thinks.
Safe to say that eight years later, droids, SBDs, Trandoshans, Geonosians, and Destroyers are still making accounts to dislike this.
Kind of sucks how battlefront has two sequels while Republic Commando still only the one game.
Remember Sev
Really hard to think it's already been 8 years since Republic Commando came out.
Clone Announcer: Headshot! Trandoshian Announcer: HEEEAAAADDSHHAAUUGGHHHTTT
Star Wars Imperial Commando
Anyone else remember blasting through tranoshins with a shot gun and that satisfying squish when you beat one with the end of your gun
Remember Karen Traviss and the life she breathed into the Clone army and Clone Commandos. 💪🧠
We will go back for sev one day I promise.
This is so 2000s I miss it.
Its a crime that this song doesnt have more views tbh.
This song deserves to be much more famous!!!!!
That 2000s era angst and edge just hits different
I finished republic commando today and that’s what brought me here. I feel really lonely seeing all these comments from 6 years ago.
Haven't heard this song in ages, I forgot how damn good it is!
2022..? Nostalgia de Star Wars Republic Commandos
So...much ..............................NOSTALGA
This is probably my favourite song on Meldown! I love Ash =) My favourite band. Ever.
