Audio: Love Is All, “Darling Nikki”

May 21, 2008


FADER cover alumni (and currently awesome Swedish rock combo) Love Is All will be leaving Gothenburg for a week of stateside shows next month, including a stop at NYC's own miniature jam palace Cake Shop on the 12th. Check the full schedule on their MySpace. If you need another reason besides "We said so!" to leave your internet cave and see Love Is All in person, keep in mind that their luggage will be stuffed not only with Coppertone and madras shorts and other vacation essentials, but a grip of hand-printed, five song cover CDs. Their shambolic takes on Dire Straits and Flock Of Seagulls are bound to be major, but we're hung up on this version of Prince's "Darling Nikki" because of the way Josephine Olausson mumbles the purple one's lyrics ("mashtrubating with a magoozeen...") and also because it gives us an excuse to remind you that TIPPER GORE STILL SUCKS. Smash the PMRC!
