Warp posted a link to download an MP3 of this sad cover. I
still like my version of it. What r u thoughts on it?

bit too close to the original...

All my fave cover versions add something new or approach the
song in different style..(like for instance, Mike Flowers
version of Wonderwall, that was pure genius)...

That said...it's not bad...better than I expected, I must
admit..

I agree that it's a little too close to the original but the
drum work is fantastic

The other three tracks on the EP are excellent - especially
good is When Good Dogs Do Bad -- I like the cover version
too

It's awful. It just goes to show how electronic music is
soo above and beyond everything else in its
capabilities...just makes me want to put on the real come to
daddy.

Is that sarcasm?

If not, I think I will go vomit now.

Right now I think electronically generated music's
capabilities are beyond non-electronically generated music
in what types of sounds it is capable of creating...sure
the drummer is talented, but with electronic music its
really more about the sounds created rather than how they
are created. I feel the same way about Film right now.
Maybe I'm a technofile. I don't really understand what is
sickening about it...

You're just disrespecting not only every piece of music made
before the mid-20th century, but also the musical geniouses
who make music by different means (i.e. non-electronic
instruments). I just think it was a very ignorant comment.

Hmm, I didn't mean to. The only people who I am
disrespecting really is this band who obviously did as much
as they could to come as close as possible to recreating
sounds that were originally computer generated, and the
output does not sound nearly as good. I feel the same way
about Philip Glasses cover of Icct Hedral. I listen to some
alternative type music, if that's even what they call it
anymore, I also listen to a lot of hip hop, and my brother
is a classical pianist, so I am subjugated to that 24/7
(although I'm not really into it myself.) The beats the
create for hip hop, the sounds that guitars can create,
there's just a lot more possibility right now with
computers. And of course acoustic instruments sound good.
I think what can be done right now combining the two is
particularly interesting, and I also think that computers
can come much closer to reproducing the sounds of
bands/orchestras etc. than vice versa, that's why I would
seldom listen to the cover of an electronic song.
If I say that digital video editing is superior to film
editing does that mean I'm disrespecting every movie and
filmmaker before 10 years ago?

I just treat em as two seperate forms of music... do
different things for me... nice to see the crossover tho, be
nice to see some others (done by RESPECTED artists)

dillinger escape plan is one of the most talented bands out
there. not many can come close to the speed and preciseness
of them.
