My covers glow in the dark under a black light, and I find that unusual.
 
German RAC band Landser did a cover of Louie, Louie called You Gotta Go sharing their somewhat controversial feelings about black immigrants. The song still has that catchy hook, but it hits a bit different with the angry racism and a lead singer who sounds like he's been smoking 10 packs a day since he was 12. Warning: NSFW because racial slurs. Also not on Youtube, for obvious reasons.

The wild thing about this band is that it started in East Germany, before the fall of the Berlin Wall. A Rock Against Communism, pro-Nazi band. In a communist dictatorship that may have had the highest level of state surveillance in the world at the time. Say whatever else you will about them, they definitely had huge balls to do that. Their early albums were smuggled out of the country by sympathizers in the west.
 
Two very different, quite interesting renditions of Nirvana's In Bloom:

Hooverphonic amping up the Mother Nature aspects...



...while Sturgill Simpson rounds off the lyric of the chorus quite, quite beautifully:

 
Big band style cover of One More Red Nightmare which should work but kind of doesn't. Probably because the band isn't very big.


Weird alt-rockish style cover of One More Red Nightmare by what sounds like one man muttering the lyrics to himself in a corner. Shouldn't work but kind of does for some reason. The slow sort of laid back way it progresses makes it sound even doomier than the original.
 
Black Midi, famous eccentric british math rock band, released a cover of Taylor Swift's "Love Story". I can say with confidence that a month ago, no one would've thought they'd ever do something like this.
In the same album, they covered 21st Century Schizoid Man and Moonlight On Vermont.
 
Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? by Leona, Clara & Lilika.


The Rod Stewart original sounds sleazy, this one sounds desperate. Whilst both versions slap, RevCo's version slaps the hardest (and by a noticeable margin).
