I've listened to a couple more songs from the new all-Goth tribute album put out by Cleopatra Records, and this version isn't too bad. The vocals sound kind of like Devo trying to be a Goth band, but I do like the drums on this cover. It's not a very unique cover, but it's not half bad.

This comes from an all-Goth Bowie tribute album put out by the titans of mostly mediocre tribute albums, Cleopatra Records. I went straight for this song, so I haven't checked out the other covers yet, but I sure hope they are better than this. Christian Death turn in a train wreck of a cover. It is out of sync, like a badly assembled toy on Christmas morning. What a turd.

This is a cool version. Eater covers an early Bowie classic in their thin, jangly punk style which fits the song perfectly. If you didn't know the original you would think this is just another (awesome) Eater song, rather than some band trying to sound like David Bowie. Current artists take note.
