On this 7” split each band offer one acoustic original and an electric cover. Before picking up this split I’d only herd one song from Detournement, and that happened to be the electric version of ‘Odessa’, which is the acoustic original the band offers. This probably isn’t the best release to be introduced to a new band, but I’m gonna have to keep my eyes (and ears) peeled for them at my local record store.
Detournement’s cover Tracy Chapman’s ‘Talkin’ Bout A Revolution’ and even though I haven’t herd the original version I’m sure it wouldn’t rock this hard. Though I do have Tracy Chapman’s ‘Crossroads’ LP, but I can’t remember shit off of it.
Off With Their Heads’ side of things is what I really came here for. ‘Listerine’ (their acoustic original) can now be found on their new LP ‘In Desolation’ under the title ‘My Episodes’. Now I don’t know too much about Panthro UK United 13 (infact I know nothing of them) but the OWTH version of ‘Princess’ sounds pretty good. I’m gonna have to check these guys out as well.
Also great artwork by Zak Kaplan (of Detournement).
