While writing the Heaven album post I ran into a couple of fantastic covers Adam Franklin from Swervedriver posted earlier this year. It's unknown what the story is behind the covers - these tracks aren't on any of Franklin's albums and they aren't available to download on iTunes, Amazon, or Bandcamp. [The songs also aren't part of the 30 personalized songs he recorded for the sold out limited edition version of Black Horses (those personalized songs, by the way, will be sent to fans near the end of the week.)]
Stream Franklin's version of "Accidents Will Happen" (Elvis Costello) and "Candle" (Sonic Youth) below.
Adam Franklin & Bolts of Melody's new album Black Horses was released in July. Stream the album in full here and purchase now from iTunes, Amazon, or Goodnight Records. It appears fans can also still download a free mp3 of "Boom!" from Black Horses courtesy of Rolling Stone.
