Wye Oak Covers Danzig, Björk and the Moomins, and Jay Reatard

This will be a dark week on the blog:

Wye Oak did a brillant cover of Danzig's "Mother" as a part of the A.V. Club's Undercover project:

Björk recently made a song for the film "Moomins and the Comet Chase." This is beautiful, moving, and dark:



Lastly, "It Ain't Gonna Save Me" from Jay Reatard. Again, great music but depressing stuff, especially since it seems to foreshadow his death last year.



Now that some of the depressing stuff is out of the way, maybe we can have an upbeat rest of the week!
