The A.V. Club's Undercover series turned ten today with Wye Oak's cover of the Kinks' "Strangers." In Wye Oak's capable hands, the song is a meandering ballad, not unlike theLola vs. Powerman original. The duo isn't alone here though; Jonathan Meiburg of Shearwater, who have been touring with Wye Oak, pops in to add a layer of theatrical vocals. I have a feeling the Davies brothers would approve of the gnarly guitars in the middle here.
