"ABCDEFU" by Glass Tides

 


Adelaide, Australia emo punk band Glass Tides serve up Plano, Texas teen Gayle's 2021 entree of angst with sides of unadulterated fury and salad with piss and vinaigrette dressing "ABCDEFU."

Where many an emo band will take the song's lyrics and sing them in a growl that sounds like it's coming from a constipated Tom Waits, these guys don't.  

The result?  A highly enjoyable remake, start to finish.

Disclaimer: Contrary to the vitriolic chorus, there's nothing wrong with owning a Craigslist couch.   At least I tell myself that while reminiscing about freecycled furniture of apartments past.
