Torres has revealed her take on Garbage's "Special", a track originally released in 1998 on their LP Version 2.0.
With rattling top-tempo percussion jarring with Torres lethargic vocal line and sparse guitar, it's a gorgeous take on the cult band's track, adding Scott's emotionally heavy twist to the fray.
Torres released sophomore LP Sprinter earlier this year, and it's one of this year's most astonishing albums. Unsurprisingly, it's fairly great live too.
