XLR8R

The remixes keep coming from Portland-based outfit Parenthetical Girls. With their Tomlab debut, Entanglements, about to hit the shelves, the band commissioned labelmates No Kids and Seattle's The Dead Science to play a couple covers of the band, both of which are currently playing on XLR8R.com. While No Kids turned "This Regrettable End" into a dancey number with a 4/4 beat, The Dead Science's version of "Young Eucharists" is a more experimental rock affair, with reverb-drenched vocals and guitar chords that crescendo throughout the song.
