Manchester-based alt-rock trio The Blinders have released their cover version of Echo & The Bunnymen's classic "The Killing Moon".
The band's new EP 'Electric Kool-Aid (Part 1)' will be out on January 14th.
Speaking about the cover, singer Thomas Haywood said: “You attach yourself to particular songs and marry them with moments of your own life. It’s a collective favourite of the band and one of the best songs that’s ever been written.”
“We recorded it live at Parr Street in Liverpool, which was the same studio Echo & the Bunnymen recorded the original song. That made it even more special. I hope we didn’t butcher it! We always wanted to get in there and do something. It’s since then been shut down so we’re pleasedwe got this one in the bag.”
