Holy shit this is amazing, the original was cool but this is badass and kinda funny at the same time it took me til the ooh ooh part to realize what song this was haha
I hate to be mean, but I get the feeling that the people who don't like this cover liked the original and thought it was going to sound pretty much exactly the same.
Which I find to be anathema to the idea of doing covers in the first place. If you're not going to do anything interesting, why bother? The original band have then already done it better.
i found the unlabeled clear 5" record inside of another 7" i bought at a used record store (found it when i got home). so it was basically free, and i was super psyched.
(1) people who like the song and don't like Big Black will have your reaction right now, no failure there
(2) people who don't like the song will enjoy hearing it .. shall we say .. mishandled, and
(3) people who like the song AND Big Black (like me) will get a kick out of the contrast of hearing it done the way Big Black normally makes records. So they set out to do 3 things and accomplished all of them.
This is available on a clear 5" record that was distributed with copies of the Pigpile VHS tape, which is why it was released after their break up.

It feels so weird to hear Albini sing about sex and love. I'm used to hearing him sing about self immolation and slaughtering animals.

How was this released in 1992 when Big Black broke up in 1987?

@TheReadyMen maybe they recorded it for fun before they split?

@TheReadyMen Posthumously perhaps? I don't know, I don't own this.

@borntoperform96 I'm fairly sure they did this for 3 reasons:
(1) people who like the song and don't like Big Black will have your reaction right now, no failure there
(2) people who don't like the song will enjoy hearing it .. shall we say .. mishandled, and
(3) people who like the song AND Big Black (like me) will get a kick out of the contrast of hearing it done the way Big Black normally makes records. So they set out to do 3 things and accomplished all of them.
