This @astroboirap guy is an idiot. He said the same thing on TVOTR's cover of Walking the Cow. Racist jerk... Do you just search out songs they've covered and mention how the cover isn't as good because they're black? There is something wrong with you.

Had this been a different band, perhaps a non-indie band or something, im confident the general replies would have been "what a horrible version"

It takes A LOT to pull off a Pixies cover and they definitely do it better than ANYONE.

So I was finally listening to this EP, and getting thoroughly blown away by how great it was, especially the earlier version of "Staring at the Sun", which I think is grander, less stripped down than the version on "DY, BTBs."
Then I noticed "Mr. Grieves" and thought, "Cool, a Pixies cover." I put it on and burst out laughing with joy listening to this totally unexpected reinterpretation! I think I love it as much as the Pixies' original version, which is a fucking FEAT let me tell you...

@astroboirap You sir, are a fucking racist. P.S. This is an awesome cover.

@astroboirap what isn't good about this video

@dsgamerwiiplayer lol, mother fucking agree
This cover is officially my best find of the day. This band is incredibly talented, and pull off this amazing a cappella version of a Pixies favourite. :)

this is everything a cover should be. they made it their own, what's the point of doing a cover that sounds exactly like the original?
