I promise I won’t only post awesome covers of Joy Division, but this amazing video off FreeWilliamsburg is too good to pass up -

Please pass this on to Trinity’s music department, and hopefully we’ll get a Samba cover of Age of Consent by next May?

The audio is Hot Chip’s version of the same song, check it!

Hopefully Fran will like me again….

if I post about Broken Social Scene covering Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart.” While the original is an unreal new wave anthem, this track is a beautifully slow, building track that has a bit more weight.

Stream it on Pitchfork and we’ll post the mp3 when we can!

In the meantime, here’s the original video:

And included is Nouvelle Vague’s Bossa Nova cover from 2005

LCD Soundsystem covering Joy Division is like vanilla ice cream covering blueberry pie- it makes a good thing even BETTER! here is a cover of “No Love Lost”
