The Electric Roaches

This is a strange case. Obviously these guys
thought that Ronnie Bird did the original as they credit the song to (R.
Bird). They simply re-translated the track from Ronnie Bird's 'Chante'
and created a new song in the process. Or is it a hoax? I suppose that
anyone familiar with The Haunted, whose '1-2-5' gets covered on the A-side,
must have heard 'I Can Only Give You Everything' by The Haunted as well.
All in all, this is very clever, and great too! Line-up: Woody Roache (guitar/vocals)
- Arnold Roache (bass/backing vocals) - Johnny Too Bad (drums). Produced
by Morris Apelbaulm and The Electric Roaches. |
