Hey there! You should read this original post on the hill by going here: Dan Griffin - Yulia (Wolf Parade Cover) Wednesdays are made for cover songs. At least this is what I've heard, or rather, this is the premise I'm concocting to suit the needs of this post. But have a listen to Dan Griffin's rather solemn, acoustic take on Wolf Parade's tragic Cosmonaut opus Yulia and you'll agree it deserved a posting. Griffin, also known as a member of current CDN rock radio faves Arkells , released a rather lovely [...]

Dan just dropped a single which is a cover of Wolf Parade's Yulia. I was like "WOW!" he did an great job making a upbeat rock tune into a stripped down acoustic folky sound. Have a listen to Yulia .

Wolf Parade - Yulia

[ Buy Wolf Parade albums so that you may tenderly stroke their covers, weeping while the band enters an indefinite hiatus .]

A new video has been released for the Canadian band Wold Parade 's song "Yulia" from their recent album, Expo 86. It's a pretty sweet video if you like slow-building indie rock, space and soviet propaganda. Wolf Parade "Yulia" from NORTH on Vimeo .

Wolf Parade’s new video (click image above) is from Yulia, a track off their Expo 86 [SubPop 2010] LP.

Wolf Parade "Yulia" from NORTH on Vimeo . Check out the very cool space exploration video for Wolf Parade's Yulia from their Expo 86 album.  This album grew on me a lot after hearing it, putting it down, and rediscovering it again. Buy Expo 86 Wolf Parade Website |   Facebook |   Myspace

Check out a couple tracks off the upcoming Wolf Parade record EXPO 86. These two songs are currently available together on iTunes , where you can also pre-order the full album (out June 29th, 2010).  The tracks were recorded and mixed at Hotel2Tango with Howard Bilerman in late February and early March of 2010. I've also been more a fan of Dan's voice than Spencer's, so I'll recommend 'Yulia' first.  But, knowing this band, give them all a chance to grow.
