How to stuff a Wild Bikini

While walking to work this moning, I was listening to an mp3′ed-version of a mix-CD my friend Maja had sent me from Germany. She had put a cover version of Tullycraft’s Wild Bikini by American band Saltine Crack Whores (what’s in a name…), that I hadn’t heard before. The cover is quiet and acoustic, with female vocals; hence quite different from the original (which, I just found, is named after a film), but it’s still good. Which just shows once more that Tullycraft write brilliant tunes, despite their image of ‘just a group of silly American twee kids who like to put tons of geeky indiepop-references in their songs’.

Both the original and the cover version can be found at the Skatterbrain blog. Which I just discovered and which seems pretty good. Speaking of blogs, you know that Tullycraft’s official website has been an mp3-blog for quite a while now, don’t you?
