I don't own the rights to this song, this is a cover version. Go listen to, even better buy the original by Metric.

After watching, and obsessing over, Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World I got the comics, but also the soundtrack. This song, originally by Metric stood out. It was also the song The Clash at Demonhead' perform in the movie. The comic book describes them as art rockers, but I always imagined arty indie (I'm in lesbians with The Xx, Wild Beasts, and Foals at the minute - particularly their distinctive, yet paradoxically, energised mellow guitar tones). Anyways, I decided to have a go at a cover with said influences in mind. Its not finished yet, it needs synth, but more obviously a vocal. I might re-record it again, this is essentially a 1st draft. Hence that annoying white noise drone. Oh and any of you wondering why the drums sound so industrial, its because I didn't use drums. I used a shoebox and a 'Sigg' bottle as percussion. Yea, didn't expect that answer.
