One of the oddest stories to come out of the 1960s pop music era had to be that of the Strangeloves, a group formed by three guys who'd been record producers and songwriters, but decided they wanted to get in on the action as performers. Of course, they weren't the first to do that, but what made their effort extra unusual was that they invented a completely phoney background for their group - one that included an Australian origin. The oddest thing is that it worked - at least for a while - because 19652s "I Want Candy" was a [...]

Any regular reader of the Ripple (affectionately known as a waverider) will know that its usually Old School who regales us with tales and reviews from the blues scene. Unfortunately, due to some personal matters, our brother Old School won't be able to join us for a while, so Penfold and I are going to stretch ourselves and pick up some of the music that Old School would normally review. In the meantime, our prayers go out to Old School. We're here for you, brother! So, with that said, it's time to delve into this [...]

Happy Monday everybody! Sorry for the no-show all weekend, but I come back bearing gifts! Or the chance to win a gift anyway. Way back this winter Gucci commissioned Friendly Fires to record a Depeche Mode cover ('Strangelove') for their Gucci Guilty scent campaign. In celebration of the band's new album 'Pala' Gucci has commissioned 1000 exclusive vinyl records of the promotional 'Strangelove' cover. You already know how much I love the new album, so obviously I'm thrilled by this. Gucci is giving away the 1000 vinyls via their Gucci Guilty Facebook contest . [...]

Theophilus London @ Mohawk Theophilus London packed the downstairs room of the Mohawk as part of the Mog/Lexus Party. Theo did an A+ job at engaging not only a kinetic swath of fans but a room, perhaps not so familiar with his music. "Flying Overseas", "Why Even Try", "Strange Love", all the best examples of his unique Electro Hip Hop, hyped the crowd. His brief 30 minute set flew by, with multiple instances of girls-in-attendance brought on stage, numerous hilarious back-and-forths with the audience, and a few indie celeb-in-the-crowd shouts (TVOTR's Dave Sitek, for one). [...]
Bat For Lashes revives Depeche Mode's "Strangelove" in the breathy cover she recorded for the new Gucci Guilty Pour Homme commercial. Directed by Frank Miller (Sin City, 300), the ad stars the steamy Chris Evans and Evan Rachel Wood eliciting 'guilty' behavior with each other. Watch the commercial: Listen to the full track: BAT FOR LASHES - STRANGELOVE by Gucci Guilty
The COVER Strangelove by Peter24B The ORIGINAL

Modern goth goddess Bat for Lashes released a cover of 80's electronic duo Depeche Mode's "Strangelove" for a new line of Gucci cologne. The track is reminiscent of previous work from Bat for Lashes, and the song goes very well with a darker tone than that of its originators, although it retains a certain dance-iness that cemented Depeche Mode pop culture. Expect to hear the song in commercials for the new line of cologne, but for now, you can listen to it over at Spin . -Dorian Blue Mendoza

Natasha Khan, mejor conocida como Bat for Lashes llegó a nosotros hace ya un par de años con su álbum debut titulado "Fur and Gold" pero no logró "verdadero" éxito internacional sino hasta el 2009 con su segunda producción titulada "Two Suns", disco que hasta nos vino a presentar a México, cuando la banda inglesa Coldplay estaba de gira por acá. De hecho, nosotros la entrevistamos esa vez. Casi un año después de su visita, nos hemos topado con un cover realizado por la artista a " Strangelove " de Depeche Mode. La verdad [...]
