Excited to hear Toro y Moi's cover, I guess. Don't really know the rest of the artists other than Paramore really. Well, I know The National, I just don't really like The National.
that sounds far too interesting to mix in with this lineup.
Paramore cover has been released:

Jeez this is a bad cover.
there are so many picks that probably would have been cheaper than Lorde or Miley Cyrus that could have been interesting but nope... who is this made for?
The Paramour cover is... serviceable.
I'll be there for BadBadNotGood, Toro Y Moi, and The Linda Lindas though.

I could've personally thrown darts at my bandcamp library and found the same amount of bands that would've done real interesting and fun talking heads covers instead of at least from Paramore is a serviceable karaoke cover.

Well, that was no Tom Jones and the Cardigans, that's for sure.
Bet you wouldn't say that if you were within tomato throwing distance, punk. 🍅🍅🍅
The Paramore cover isn't the most inventive thing in the world by any means, but I like them a lot anyway and it's fun enough.
I don't love recent offerings from The National but I'm interested in seeing what they end up doing. I can see BadBadNotGood, Toro y Moi, Chicano Batman and Kevin Abstract doing more than beat-for-beat covers - not as familiar with the other members of the artist list though.

Yeah, this might be a waste. Like its a good but unimaginative cover, someone like LCD Soundsystem would have done a faithful cover and also tacked on a cokey rant in the end.
I feel for the artists because this a track like this is a classic so no real way to do it without someone hating.

I don't necessarily fully disagree with some of these takes, but y'all are sleeping on Blondshell, they're gonna do something interesting

the less we say about it the better
Blondshell and Chicano Batman are the covers I'm most interested in hearing personally.
One time I was playing the Stop Making Sense album at a job I had in college, and one of the other girls who worked there was all 'oh this is a great cover of the Cardigan's song!' when Burning Down the House came on.
Still no tracklist?
Can't wait to see what Chicano Batman came up with
I'm very interested in hearing this album when it comes out. I like hearing cover tunes.
One of my favorite cover album is Encomium: A Tribute to Led Zeppelin. If you haven't heard it, I recommend checking it out if you like LZ tunes. It's a fresh take and I think all of the songs are good. My favorite is Stone Temple Pilots version of Dancing Days.

i keep hoping that the covers make drastic or interesting changes to the songs
i mean, its nice, but its not doing much for me
i keep thinking of the cover of "thank you for being a friend" from the my little pony movie
well, no, its not quite that bad, but it still popped into my head
Love this one, but my gold standard of tribute albums is the Nativity in Black duology, with Black Sabbath covers. The Therapy cover of Iron Man and the Primus cover of N.I.B both have Ozzy on vocals and they both are awesome.I'm very interested in hearing this album when it comes out. I like hearing cover tunes.
