Random Cover Song Thursday: Alkaline Trio covers Hot Water Music’s “Rooftops”

Cover songs are like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re going to get.  We here at Dying Scene love hearing punk bands do their own take on other band’s songs.  Sometimes they pull off amazing interpretations of old classics, sometimes they’re not much more than humble tributes to a fellow artist, and other times they’re just downright laughable renditions of otherwise great songs.  Good or bad.  Intriguing or mundane.  We’ll let you be the judge.

This week it’s Alkaline Trio covering Hot Water Music‘s “Rooftops.”  The cover appears on a split CD between the bands that was put out in 2002.  You can stream both the original song and the cover version right here.
