Weird Nightmare covers The Troggs' "Our Love Will Still Be There"
Weird Nightmare, aka Alex Edkins of Metz, has shared a cover of The Troggs' "Our Love Will Still Be There".
Following his "So Far Gone" track that arrived earlier this month, Weird Nightmare has delivered a cover of The Troggs' 1966 track "Our Love Will Still Be There".
Edkins says of the cover, "British Invasion is a really big part of my musical DNA. The Kinks, The Troggs, The Pretty Things are my go-to comfort music. I wear their influence pretty heavily on my sleeve on at least a couple Weird Nightmare songs, "I Think You Know" and "Lusitania" come to mind. The Troggs, and all the American garage bands they influenced, make distorted pop that, to my ears, sounds like the precursor to punk. Loose, gritty, immediate, and heartfelt."
His self-titled debut album as Weird Nightmare was released in May.
Weird Nightmare's cover of The Troggs' "Our Love Will Still Be There" is out now on Sub Pop.
