SolarSolar: "Albatross" (Wild Beasts Cover) (Prefix Premiere)

We previously heard from Toronto's SolarSolar last month when they shared "Walk Like Children," a blend of dreamy and wintry vibes that served as a preview of their upcoming album. But before that record, Pilot, gets here on Feb. 21, the duo has decided to share their downtempo cover of a Wild Beasts tune.

SolarSolar's version of "Albatross" is what Wild Beasts' original could be if they had toned down the dramatics and added ethereal female vocals. That's not a knock on the original but merely a compliment to the fact that SolarSolar was able to remain both understated and refreshing in their approach. You can stream and download the cover below.
