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 Streetlight Manifesto covering The Dead Milkmen song “Punk Rock Girl” Check the cover and compare it to the original right here.
The cover song appears on “99 Songs of Revolution” which was released in 2010 through Victory Records. The original version appears on Dead Milkmen’s 1988 album “Beelzebubbar”.
