sk8r boi cover

Was listening to knifehandchop's mix on John Peel last week and he played a cover of Sk8r Boi with electro/dnb beats etc and a vocoder/computer type voice. I'm not sure who it's by but I'm fairly sure it's on tigerbeat 6 as this version goes 'rockin up tigerbeat' instead of 'rockin up MTV'. Any help on the artist?

Very funny, missed that one so cheers for that. Unfortunately, my question is entirely serious for the track in question was rather good.

I'm covering "Sk8ter Boi" for the second ILX comp.

oh go on, that'd be great! It should be an Avril cover's album.

It was by someone calling himself Cap'n Ahab and it's on Irritant Records - might be CD only. I haven't heard it myself but it sounds like a hoot.
