Bands that cover Sonic Youth
 

Signed or unsigned, member here or not. Know of any?

I got this cd a while ago, but I didn't find anything that blew me away.

As far as that cd goes, racebannon did an excellent cover of death valley 69 but none of the other covers particularly impressed me. Also see their great cover of "electricity". They're not that good of a band, and their singer specifically annoys me (and somehow I've seen them live 4 times for whatever fucked up reason) but they do damn good covers.

Seek out William Hooker's version of "Becuz". Absolute godhead.

Camper Van Beethoven's country version of "I Love Her All of the Time" is a classic.

Wixel's cdr of Sonic Youth covers is really cool mostly ambient versions of stuff. "Shadow of a Doubt" is actually still pretty rocking though, and may be my favorite of them.

Let´s not forget the wonderful "Halloween" by Mudoney

cat power covering psychic hearts was pretty cool

Can you please upload it?

^ what he said.

we did two board tribute albums.

The string quartet tribute album was nice.

Console (Martin Gretschmann from The Notwist) - Starpower (on the album Mono)

Hits Are For Squares is cover versions

No it's not...

1. Cat Power's cover of "Schizophrenia" is great.
2. Beck supposedly covered "The Diamond Sea" acoustically at some shows.
3. The String Quartet Tribute is quite nice.
4. What was William Hooker's "Becuz" on????????

the go! team did Bull in the Heather which was ok

Ladies Who Lunch (one of Lucious Jackson + one of The Breeders) did a 7" called Kims We Love, which included a cover of Bull In The Heather
