Third Eye Blind专辑介绍：Third Eye Blind have seen no shortage of their ubiquitous radio singles covered by the young bucks (and karaoke crooners), and now the ’90s hitmakers are repaying the love. The band has announced a new covers EP called Thanks For Everything, a seven-song effort featuring some artists you wouldn’t typically see alongside 3EB. Songs by Tim Buckley, Queens of the Stone Age, and Bon Iver are included on the album, as are artists like alternative dance singer Santigold, Pacific Northwest indie outfit Chastity Belt, and Oakland-based rockers Happy Diving. Frontman Stephan Jenkins went for some deep cuts, too, with the band covering the title track from Bon Iver’s 2009 Blood Bank EP, which few would consider to be at the forefront of Justin Vernon’s work. “The idea with this EP was to amplify some of that music and art, and in doing so, catch inspiration for our next album,” Jenkins says in a press release, which also notes that all proceeds from the EP will benefit the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh. In advance of the album’s August 24th release, the band has released “Fuck Forever”, a cover of Pete Doherty’s UK rock outfit Babyshambles. Though less consciously sloppy than Doherty’s original cut, Jenkins’ version gives it an anthemic, cathartic feel that’s no doubt born from his views on the US’s current political climate. In a press release, he says, “There’s a raised fist in this song and that’s what we need right now.” Jenkins has also shared some thoughts regarding the EP’s other covers, which you can check out below along with a video detailing the band’s collaboration with artist Uncutt, who provided the record’s artwork.
