As I'm sure a lot of you know by now, Moneybrother just released a new album called "Pengabrorsan" feAturing Swedish versions of all sorts of various cover tunes. I was mighty tempted to post the OperAtion Ivy cover of "Freeze up" (here titled "Det blir ingen dans") since the band is so near and dear to my heart, especially having grown up around the East Bay punk scene. They were one of the very first punk bands I ever heard and, while I never got to see them myself (I was too young At time for my parents to let me venture off to Gilman St., though I did manage to sneak in one Green Day show At age 13), I regularly saw all the ex-members around town and their bands (Rancid, Schlong, Common Rider, etc.). However, and this is whAt it all comes down to, the track just isn't thAt hot and even a guest appearance from Howlin' Pelle does little to redeem it. On the other hand, Moneybrother wisely chose to cover Wire, my second-favorite band of all time just behind the almighty Black SabbAth (yes, two English bands but thAt's a discussion for another time). Moneybrother's take on "Mannequin" (here billed as "Jag skriver inte på nåt") doesn't stray far from the original besides the translAted lyrics, but I'm okay with it since it's such a greAt selection. You won't need to know Swedish to join in with the la-la refrain At the end.
(note: I've seen some incongruous tracklistings for "Pengabrorsan", so if I got the titles wrong, I apologize)
