We flagged this up a few months back but missed the actual release but the very well realised Lullaby Versions of Faith No More by Twinkle Twinkle Little Rock Star was released on 16 September.
It is available on iTunes here
Or it can also be purchased here.
Or here is a Spotify stream (beware this does what it says on the tin and this will lull you to sleep.)
There’s a good discussion here on Motherfucker, the first single which Faith No More will release on 28 November. The release will be a limited release of 5,000 for Record Store Day’s Black Friday promotion but some limited numbers of copies will also be made available for international use. Details of a digital release pre-order will also be revealed soon.
We haven’t had a Faith No More cover for a while so here is an interesting acoustic take on Midlife Crisis from Polish band The Hangovers.
“These lullabyes really are just too sleep-inducing, that’s the only purpose I can think of for them. On the other hand, these 8-bit FNM songs made by this guy Charlie McIntosh are awesome…

You know what the word “lullaby” means, right? It’s primary purpose is to send you to sleep… that’s the point.

Thanks, it sounds like it could have been some other take or remix from the IY sessions, but I’m sure we would have heard of that by now. Chuck’s voice sounds like it did back then; I’m wondering if they got an alternate vocal take, then just had some other guys play the song? Or maybe studio trickery with the actual track to make it sound more raw?
That is weird. Looking into it.
Anyone have any idea what the deal with this re-recorded We Care A Lot track is? It along with a bunch of other re-recorded 80’s songs are popping up on a bunch of compilations. I don’t know about who’s playing the other instruments, but it is definitely Chuck on vocals.

Christ, the comments on that youtube link are just painful to read. A bunch of 15 year old kids calling each other faggots, basically. Enlightening stuff.
