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 Denver pop-punk band The Gamits covering “Your Love” by the 80’s British pop-rock group The Outfield.
Check out the cover and the original here.
The cover was originally recorded for a bonus track on the Japanese “Antidote” release and then showed up again in the box set, “Golden Sometimes” which came out on Suburban Home Records. The Outfield version appears on The Outfield’s 1985 album “Play Deep” which was released on Columbia.
