Don't Speak

by Hey Elbow

Lawrence Zeller Covers should add a fresh perspective to the original. This cover does that perhaps better than any other cover I've ever heard, re-inventing the song and turning a pop ballad into a mind-blowing psychy, gazey beauty. A masterpiece.

about

Following on from the wild success of their latest album ‘We Three’, which landed in September this year, Swedish trio Hey Elbow have now unveiled a magnificent cover of the No Doubt classic ‘Don’t Speak’.

Stripping out almost every element of the original recording and transforming it into a dark and pulsing new delight, their version of ‘Don’t Speak’ makes for shimmering and captivating listen. Injecting that same bold and atmospheric direction we heard smothered throughout their latest full-length, this quick comeback offers a more adventurous sound for the trio, showing us that their creative ambitions are still very much alive within them.

Speaking about the new single, the band said, “We have for a long time been thinking that we wanted to do a cover track. But to decide on which one was very hard, there’s just so many alternatives, and what do we wanna do? When we decided that we were in for doing a cover, we landed on ”Don't Speak”, that we all that was brought up in the 90s, have somewhat of a love and hate relation to. Finally it ended up like an Hey Elbow track with big sound landscapes and freaky rhythms.”
