Bristol’s Turbowolf have announced they will be releasing a covers EP on October 8 containing four classic tracks ripped to shreds in the band’s signature weirdo style.
The EP takes a broad range of musical styles and eras, and transforms them into a sound that could only be from the minds of Turbowolf. From a grimed-up ‘Somebody To Love’ by Jefferson Airplane, to a doomy take on MGMT’s ‘Electric Feel’.
The tracklisting for the EP, due out on Hassle Records, is as follows:
‘See Through Head (The Hives)’
‘Electric Feel (MGMT)’
‘Captain Caveman (Lightning Bolt)’
‘Somebody To Love (Jefferson Airplane / The Great Society)’
The EP will be released smack in the middle of the band’s most ambitious tour to date, a 13-date UK headline road-trip:
