Description
I was working on a Feter cover, and decided to go in a completely different direction (the song lends itself to a million different interpretations). So seeing as how I am not going to use this for the MJ covers challenge, decided I would post it. Did I mention that I think my new direction when I have writers block is to cover the entire MJ catalog? No? Well, yeah; I was thinking about it. Watch out, you're next. Feter gave permission, don't worry.
Now the prelims: I won't call them disclaimers, just a friendly warning. If you don't like massive amounts of fuzz, distortion, feedback, dissonance and buried vocals, then you will probably hate this. I think it sounds pretty cool when you crank it up on regular speakers. There is only 1 guitar in this, the bulk of what you're hearing is a bass track that I cut up and processed to death and a string section put through some fuzz and delay. The other version I did of this song is more "pretty," but I really like playing and listening to stuff like this. If you think it sounds like noise, I won't be insulted; but it's the way I wanted it to sound.
here is the link to Feters original, which is a beautiful folk song:

someone has taken up where My Bloody Valentine left off. Has all the elements for sure. Big thumbs up from me.
I still need to figure what to cover myself
