"I Know What It's Like" originally appeared on Tweedy's 2018 LP WARM, and today (30 June) Disq have released a cover of the Tweedy track.
Disq's cover is their first release since last year's debut album Collector.
Vocalist Isaac deBroux-Slone writes of their Tweedy cover on Bandcamp, "I’ve been a big Wilco fan for the past few years and picked up Jeff Tweedy’s album WARM after Brendan had played it in the car a few times - "I Know What It’s Like" really stood out to me as a great pop/rock song that I could put my own spin on - the minimal structure of the original gave room for creative license. I sped up the original recording a decent amount so I’d have something to play along to and off I went. We decided it’d be fun to present the finished product as an interim release; post-Collector and pre-whatever's next."
He adds, "We always love throwing a fun cover or two in the set, and were gearing up to learn this one as a band so we could play it on our Collector release tour, but we all know what happened to that. My hope is that somebody who is a fan of Disq or Wilco (or both, or neither) could find some comfort in our version of this song (I know I’ve found comfort in Mister Tweedy’s original)."
