KILLER COVERS || White Denim: "Get Back to Love"

Austin-based White Denim combined their own original song "Street Joy" (original here) with R. Kelly's "Get Back to Love" and ended up with a vintage sounding 70s soul classic, complete with falsetto singing. I want to say I remember reading that this was recorded as a b-side to the band's obligatory Record Store Day 7", but you already have enough shit to buy on R.S.D. so I can't be bothered to look that up.

White Denim: "Drug"

About time I repped one of my hometown bands.  White Denim have been bouncing around for three years now after debuting with the much hyped single, "Let's Talk About It".  The success predicted off the basis of that single hasn't entirely come to fruition, but that could well be because the band didn't milk that same psych garage sound in perpetuity.  "Drug" comes off their current album, D, and sees the lads kicking the tires on a Sloan / Flaming Lips hybrid model.
