When I heard that one of my favorite bands discovered in the last year started covering one of (if not my) favorite Pearl Jam songs ever in the UK a few weeks ago, I honestly couldn’t imagine how it would sound. Surprisingly it’s VERY true to the original, even including Eddie Vedder’s usual fuckup in the same exact spot!
This makes me even more excited to see them again on April 4th with the great Heartless Bastards @ the Varsity Theater.
*update* Someone has posted a great video of them performing this in Milan, Italy on February 24th
Awesome. I love me some State of Love and Trust. This sounded great.
Dope cover! I love this band.

That was pretty damn awesome. Thanks!
That is so cool!
Great vid-great performance. I can't watch it too many times or I'll start thinking twice about choosing the Friendly Fires/White Lies/Soft Pack show over the GA Varsity show. Hope they play this one for you that night. I'll catch them next time for sure.
