😎 Blind Covers is a show about the creative process where we give bands the lyrics to a song they've never heard, then make them write a cover in just an hour. New videos released every Tuesday, alternating between mainline Blind Covers episodes and Sessions episodes.

babe wake up, Blind Covers uploaded

[@Milroyboy]

This is why I don’t unsubscribe from “dead” channels

[@pattol666]

Algorithm got me today. Seems interesting. And ya i never unsub anything.

[@nitin3o3]

Hey good to see you guys are making videos again. Btw, for the chapters to show up in the video timeline, you have to have one that is at 0:00. Also that Siri voice caught me by surprise!

[@BlindCovers]

A perfect note! Thank you! Updated.

[@rileyrouth]

We are so back!!

[@TheTherirah]

It's back! So stoked

[@hausmusic5084]

These guys are too much 😂☠️ love them, they’re so reckless haha

[@danport222]

Welcome back!

[@BlindCovers]

Thank you for waiting!! It's good to be back 😄

[@jameswoll]

Gotta love it! This was RAD! Happy to see you back in my feed!

[@BlindCovers]

Happy to have you back in the comments!!

[@BIGSISmusic]

we had an okay time doing this.

[@dbsagacious]

So happy to see you back! Absolutely great as always, but dear God these people are like an insufferable caricature of humans. At least it was entertaining 😂😂😂

[@BlindCovers]

Emphasis on "caricature" ;)

[@BeauHarrisMedia]

Fresh.

[@escherpainting8622]

if Kurupt FM were middle class, third culture kids, it would be these two.

[@TheEpicTeatime]

Holy shit!!! I just checked your channel to see if you uploaded recently, before this video went up!

[@BlindCovers]

Aww that’s awesome! Honestly touching that people remembered this channel, I’m super excited for you to see what we have in the can

[@chrischanisinnocent_______3421]

Hell yeah so happy ur back

[@ahipmom3104]

Always takes me a second to get used to the British taking the piss style of humor, but once I did I started to like their banter.

[@Alexandretta]

You're back!!

[@schultzzzzzzy]

Oh hell yeah! well done everyone!!!

[@Smallfrogs]

The way I did a quadruple take at my subscription feed

[@BlindCovers]

THEY ALL SAID IT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN

[@bllopawah]

these guys are so cool!!!!!!!

[@kompressahdnb]

This was great

[@joemason6319]

I don't know why I notice it so much more in this compared to the original, but the "freeze without an answer" part is giving me a David Bowie at the end of Labyrinth vibe.

5:51 Leo Karpatze found dead in a ditch

[@bemy_is_best]

Their version reminds me of Kay Tempest's music. Specifically Whoops!

[@BlindCovers]

Whoooooaaa good call!! I never would’ve made that connection. Also gonna have a Kae Tempest day today

[@spectrumefp]

A Mars Volta song whittled down to two minutes?! They could turn a whole album to an EP. Love it.

[@BlindCovers]

Not a bad idea… 🤔 Goofaround in Goliath? Hexahedron? Checked for Lice in the Therapist’s Office?

[@bonniefinleyanimation]

Frances the Mute is rolling in her Desperate Grave.

[@georgewl]

Not keen on the splitting of the reveal personally, it makes the video feel incomplete

[@BlindCovers]

Honestly, I’m totally with you. The main problem is we were getting every video flagged and couldn’t get any ad revenue to pay our crew with. We’re gonna try it like this for a little bit to see how it works, but in the meantime we’re uploading the full, uncut version on Patreon because that’s the “real” version of the episode. Such is the life of making stuff in the internet age, unfortunately 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@escherpainting8622]

They're from Liverpool? Wtf are those accents??

[@georgewl]

Yo! Where you been?

[@BlindCovers]

Got sucked into a void, fought a hell demon, blah blah you know how it goes. But I’m right here now!

[@Zmaenlplibi]

​@@BlindCovers Awesome that your back!

[@bigwengz914]

Ah the mars volta, my old and dear friend. No band in this era comes close to their creativity, not even tool. This is actually their easiest song to play and sing. I disliked the original but this is even worse. Omar could have written this version in about 5 seconds. Lol. I will say though that TMV's music is so ambitious at times that even they can't replicate it live. I also found it funny they tried to understand the lyrics. Cedric was probably on heroin when he was writing them lmao.

[@chatsfornia238]

The attempt to interpret a Mars Volta track with no context is crazy, lol. I wasn't expecting such a one-dimensional attempt, but it resulted in a soft and awkward rendition.
