VARIOUS – The Raveonettes Present : Rip It Off (20th Anniversary Covers Album) – LP – Vinyl [AUG 11]

LP – Black Vinyl.

The Raveonettes presents the anniversary cover album “Rip It Off” with covers by Dave Gahan & Kurt Uenala, Anton Newcombe (The Brian Jonestown Massacre), M, Brimheim, PRISMA, Trentemller, The Black Angels and Eagles of Death Metal.

In 2002, The Raveonettes released their seminal debut mini-album Whip It On. To mark its 20th anniversary, 8 artists have made an interpretation of each of its 8 tracks on Rip It Off. Whip It On hit music fans and critics alike like a sledgehammer. Some people hated it, some didn’t even notice, but a lot of people absolutely LOVED having their minds blown by Sune Rose Wagner and Sharin Foo‘s hot blend of white noise and girl group pop songs with dark and sexy lyrics.

In the summer of 2023, Crunchy Frog will release an album of covers entitled The Raveonettes presents: Rip It Off. In November 2022, Crunchy Frog released Trentemller‘s contribution Cops On Our Tail featuring Icelandic artist DSA, while Dave Gahan & Kurt Uenala‘s cover of Chains dropped in January 2023.

Other artists contributing are: PRISMA, M, Eagles of Death Metal, The Black Angels, The Brian Jonestown Massacre and Brimheim – each single is released about a month or two apart until album’s release in August 2023.
