Customer Reviews
Diane Birch is Amazing!
This is the 2nd release by Diane Birch--this time backed by US indie band the Phenomenal Handclap Band. It's a great ep featuring covers of songs Diane loved when she was a teenager who listened to artists like Joy Division, Echo & the Bunnymen, the Cure, Siousxie & the Banshees, Peter Murphy and Sisters of Mercy. But she covers their songs in her own unique style, turning them into a completely original statement.
Amazing
Doing a covers album is a tricky thing to do; if the artist slightly misses the mark they get absolutely slated! Don't worry about this album though, it is amazing. Diane Birch has selected songs that she loves and has clearly poured alot of effort and passion in. The songs are clearly not clones of the originals but have that soulful slant that she brings naturally - very impressed!
Simply brilliant
I really liked 'Bible Belt' and purchased this EP (7 songs is an EP not an album, right?) on the strength of that.
This actually blows it away. Really well executed covers that sound very fresh. As I type this, I have "This Corrosion" turned up to eleven on the hi-fi. Magic.
Oh nearly forgot, £3.49 for 7 songs makes this extremely good value too.
