We've Got It Covered #71


Waiting. It really can be a total pain in the arse, thankfully though that old proverb "good things come to those who wait"can be pretty apt at times. This morning I have awoken to the good news that my little sister has given birth to a baby boy. Saturday mornings don't get much better than that. Plus if you chuck in England getting pumped by France at rugby and that fact that I am off work all of next week, then the next 7 days are looking pretty bright.
Something else that's exciting me a lot at the moment is the imminent return of the Twilight Sad. Kilsyth's finest have just confirmed plans for a new single and a nationwide tour, which includes the following Scottish dates in November: 13th- Dundee Doghouse, 14th Aberdeen Tunnels, 15th Inverness Ironworks, 16th Edinburgh Bongo Club, 18th Glasgow Nice N Sleazys (sold out) and 25th Stirling Tolbooth.
Having recently made new song 'Kill It In The Morning' free to download, the band have given as a good indication of what to expect from their third album which is due out in the new year. The bands new single 'Sick' seems to be a good indication that the band are moving towards a much darker electronic sound. If these tunes are anything to go by then I can't wait to hear a full album. Which brings me to this weeks cover version which of course comes from the Sad and their take on Radiohead's 'Climbing Up Walls', enjoy...
