Here’s a sweet rendition of Bruno Mars’ “Treasure” by Two Door Cinema Club. The cover was done on BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge for Sara Cox and it’s pretty fucking amazing. Two Door Cinema Cover, I mean, Club have previously covered Mumford & Sons and a few other bands.
Yo quiero ser esteriotipado. Yo quiero ser clasificado.
Here’s an awesome rendition of the Descendent’s 1982 hit, “Suburban Home,” covered by the ultra-talented four-man garage punk band Fidlar. This is the first of a 14-track compilation of covers named, FILTER Presents: Milo Turns 50. The compilation is in honor of Descendents’ frontman Milo Aukerman who turns 50 on January 1st.
The compilation features FIDLAR, Mike Watt, Band of Horses’ Ben Bridwell, YACHT, and Tijuana Panthers among others. Filter Magazine will drop the compilation on January 1.
A favorite of the site, I’ve always wanted to do every single “Cover Lover” post with Ellie’s ever-amazing voice.
Earlier today she was on BBC 1 Radio where she has covered Rihanna’s “Only Girl,” and The Knife’s “Heartbeat” among others. This time she gracefully covers fun.’s “Some Nights” and nails it.

What better way to start blogging again than with an Eliza Doolittle cover? The only explanation for our absence is that there’s way too much going on in our lives that it has made it near-impossible for us to blog full-time and still be sane.
This cover of Frank Ocean’s “Swim Good” is too good to pass up. Well, I’m pretty biased when it comes to Eliza, but still–she does an amazing job. I’m pretty sure I’m going to post all of her covers here soon.

Arguably one of the greatest bands ever, Linkin Park strut their creative ways to cover one of the biggest sensations in music at the moment. The band covered Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep” at the iTunes Festival in London’s Roundhouse on Monday night.
This is too dope.

Another U.K. songstress that I’ve come to love. Ellie transforms Rihanna’s played out “Only Girl” track to make it a more enjoyable song overall. Oh, you make me feel like I’m the only girl in the world.
Shoutout to PMA for this gem.
