Having had the vinyl just show up from the US, I'm reminded just how much Chuck changed my musical outlook.
Sensate Focus goes grime? Yeah, it's a radio rip but it's large.
Say what you want about Sum 41, but Chuck is a great album. This song is a great ending to a great album.
This is the song (and album) that turned me back on to Sum 41 after losing interest in their earlier pop punk sound. Love the break down at the end.
February '12 sees @MOJOmagazine still in love with covering entire albums, but this one's a bit different than the classic rock LPs they usually survey. This month it's 1983's Power, Corruption & Lies, the sophomore LP by Manchester synthpop giants and Joy Division heirs New Order. Some tunes here are faithful to the originals, and others take more liberties; all manage to adhere to a mood and style that makes for far more cohesive listening than the regular tribute-album freebies. My favorite 20th century act, Dan Bejar's Destroyer, appears, but not with the song I want to feature here by him; I'm going instead with London's S.C.U.M., a now-defunct electro-rock band named for would-be Warhol assassin Valerie Solanas's misandrist manifesto. They released one LP, 2011's Again Into Eyes; frontman Thomas Cohen is the widower of Peaches Geldof and father of their two children. Their cover of "586" has a nearly 2-minute intro, so let it roll.
