Stream: ARMS Cover Joy Formidable – “When the Flies”

In case you missed Black Bell Records’ limited Record Store Day 12”, an 8-track compilation featuring Joy Formidable covers by Dom (with Madeline Follin of Cults), Pretty & Nice, Normandy, and — my personal favorite — Waynestock performers ARMS’ folky take on “When the Flies,” you can now stream and download the latter cut above or give the other tracks a listen here. This take exposes the beauty of the original’s melody and mood with a more understated approach in a way that brings Horse Feathers’ surprisingly incredible cover of Nirvana’s “Drain You” to mind.
