Northstar - Chesterfield King (Jawbreaker Cover)


Northstar recently released the long overdue "Broken Parachute EP", a collection of b-sides and demos, and in that EP lies a behemoth of a cover waiting to be woken up. They/Nick Torres did an awesome job of reworking one of my favorite Jawbreaker songs into a folky/alt-countryish ditty. The lead guitar parts never fails to leave this certain twang that keeps me smilin after hearin it. Basically, Nick Torres made this cover his own and I love the man for that. :)
