Vampire Weekend – “Ruby Soho” (Rancid Cover)
posted by Richard Gill
I don’t know guys. Is it just me? Am I the only person that thinks this is just kind of lame? I mean, as I said before, I’m all for bands putting their own personalities into cover songs but c’mon, do we really need to hear a bunch of nerds from an Ivy League school take all the soul and feeling out of one of my favorite Rancid songs? Maybe if they were from an OPERATION Ivy League school. Ha! No? Hmm… fair enough.
If I wanted to hear the white man bastardize roots music I’d listen to The Police.
