Not much time for a write-up tonight, but luckily this one's pretty straightforward. Two LA bands cover two bona fide classics from Aussie punk legends
The Saints. One act is relatively renown (
Trotsky Icepick) and the other not so much (
Vena Cava). I should note that both bands feature
John-Talley Jones on vocals. Jones has a connection to the
Urinals which you can read about
here. Both renditions are pretty faithful to the originals, but as you might expect not as robust. If you have yet to make your acquaintance with the Saints head straight for their first two LPs,
I'm Stranded and
Eternally Yours, arriving in 1977 & 1978 respectfully.
Trotsky Icepick - I'm Stranded
Vena Cava - This Perfect Day
