Loveless
I bought a full covers album of MBV's Loveless by a band called Japancakes a few weeks back 'cause it seemed like an interesting take, and it's a real grower. All instrumental, the vocal lines are replaced by either violin or lapsteel and the backing is really low key electric piano, guitar and strings with a weird lounge sound at times, others nicely laid back.
As good as it is in places, the whole thing seems a bit unneccesary overall though. What do you make of these kind of covers projects, do they ever really work?
