MP3 REVIEW
We Have Band - West End Girls (Pet Shop Boys Cover)

Review: I am still trying to figure out how much/why I like We Have Band. I think I made a gimmick post about them where I called them 'the next Metronomy'. Sort of wish they were around 2 years earlier during the golden age of bloghouse. Most covers are 'kinda dumb' and 'forced', but I think this one is 'chill' and 'well-executed. The song 'West End Girls' is 'good' but also kind of 'boring.' Most 80s songs are 'fun to know about' but aren't 100% listenable. Maybe it's just because VH1 sort of memefied the 80s too much. Just think it's fun to talk about 'covers' since u have something 2 judge the product against. laters

Grade: 4.25 out of 10 runoffs
