The Dandy Warhols Announce ‘Pin Ups’ Cover Retrospective
Automatic translation. Read the Russian original
The Dandy Warhols returned to their native Portland with a concert with the Oregon Symphony Symphony Orchestra, and soon, on March 10, their fans will be waiting for a new collection - a retrospective album "Pin Ups". The title of the album is borrowed from David Bowie, but the Dandy Warhols do not cover his songs, focusing on covers by other legendary artists such as The Beatles, Bob Dylan, The Clash, The Runaways, Gang of Four and The Cure. As guitarist Peter Holmstrem explains, the record contains both famous tribute versions and previously unknown tracks found in the band's archives. “These are some of our favorite songs, or songs by our favorite artists, or just songs that we admire,” Holmstrem said. Frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor is excited about the lead single, a cover version of Violent Femmes' "Kiss Off," calling the discovery "a treasure that has been on our hard drives for years."
