Pearl Jam covered "Another Brick in the Wall."
Television Personalities covered "Apples and Oranges."
Wondermints covered "Arnold Layne." I might have that.
The Shins covered "Breathe."
A lot of people have covered "Comfortably Numb" including the Scissor Sisters and Dar Williams.
Low covered "Fearlss."
Primus and Foo Fighters both covered "Have a Cigar."
Teenage Fanclub covered "Interstellar Overdrive." So did Camper Van Beethoven.
Love and Rockets covered "Lucifer Sam," as did Jay Farrar.
Smashing Pumpkins did "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun." (What a great song title.)
Queensryche did "Welcome to the Machine."
Catherine Wheel also did "Wish You Were Here" as well as Radiohead and Sparklehorse.
That's cherry picking from this list.
Easy All Stars, Dub Side of the Moon. Made of awesome.
I'm enjoying how a high concept epiphany in the desert ends up sounding like The Outfield of all fucking things. Cobras, I'd just expect, frankly (seriously, Planetary (Go!) sounds like someone finally locked GABE in the basement). The Psychadelic Furs vibes are more than welcome. I'm not complaining, mind you, they've given me Georgia Satelites in the past so I guess nothing should surprise me.
There's also some serious Sweet vibes (hello, intro to "Vampire Money"). I think "Sing" is the most G.A.B.E.-esque song, though, just for the lyrics alone. Maybe that's what Midtown would have turned into.

Every day I have a new favorite. "Kids From Yesterday" a few days ago, then "S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W," although "Sing" stays right up there, too. I'm so squeeful about this album.
Already scheming my Killjoys costume...
eta that the video for Sing kills me. ::sniff::
I tried to convince Pete that for next Halloween he wants to dress up like Korse, and I'll come up with a Cupcake Goth Killjoy costume.
He said no. Go figure.
Bet you can talk Stunt!Husband into it.
Nope, 'cos StuntHusband would have to shave his goatee to do it, and that Does. Not. Happen.
Nah, Pete can't be Korse, Pete is ENTIRELY TOO ADORABLE.
Korse? Not at ALL adorable.
Korse is so utterly unadorable that, were Pete to successfully pull off a Korse costume, no one would ever be able to call Pete adorable again.
Ever.
