tobago 2 'fer

tv on the radio heroes (david bowie cover)
hot chip transmission (joy division cover)

i couldn't decide between these two pictures so there, you have both. i couldn't decide which track to pull from this covers project album , so you get 2.


album's called war child: heroes vol.1. war child is a canadian nfp that advocates for children in war torn regions like south ossetia and sri lanka. help a good cause (besides helping the artists themselves and enjoying great music, which are also worthy causes) and buy it.

for this benefit album the original artists chose new acts to cover their songs. duffy KILLS paul mccartney's live and let die. elbow gets quiet and poignant with u2's running to stand still. peaches creams iggie pop. hold steady invigorates bruce springsteen etc etc. really i could have put any two of these up here. it's a brilliant and brilliantly executed concept.

so why these 2.

tvotr rocks this. kyp and tunde's voices are always insane, and they definitely do ziggy stardust justice here.

hot chip makes you dance. joy division is joy division. plus the steel drums are where i'm at right now. ya know, ////with the turtles.////
