Yeah, it's a win-win, I'm just curious why.
Well yeah not everyone thinks so, but not liking the soundtrack to a movie doesn't often prompt people to rescore it. I'm just wondering what the reason is.

from what I can tell ostensibly the reason is that Drive's soundtrack was so good and inspiring that artists want to directly pay tribute to it
I'd say realistically it's for money, but I'm not sure how much a BBC airing of it one time would really make. now, if they sell the re-score digitally and/or physically to capture the market that's still paying way too much to get the Drive soundtrack on super uber limited exclusive edition pink glam glow-inthe-dark ebola-cure 6,000g vinyl, that'll really explain it

Yeah, I guess that's all there is to it.
Definitely not the new vocals I was hoping for. Just let Mayberry sing and keep Doherty away from the mic.

i agree
I'm with you there. Hearing it live is amazing. Even then, the one on the album is a fine too.
I likes it.
btw Get Away worked really well in the re-scored version of Drive. I really liked it.

Their lead singer's appearance is likely a huge part of it.
Or the songs are all great and the album is fantastic?

I was a fan after The Mother We Share, dipped a bit, then got the album. Like a good portion of it, then saw them live.
They're not particularly great live, but their stage setup is fucking phenomenal and adds a whole lot to the experience (just like M83 relies on it).
REALLY like what I've heard of Dead Air.

Saw them live in Glasgow a couple nights ago, second time I've seen them live ^_^
They also played Dead Air, loved it
And my God the crowd got incredibly rowdy toward the end, more so than usual for any gig I've been to anyway:/

Saw them at the Barras on Monday, so good. Particularly enjoyed Under the Tide and Lies. But it was all amazing.
I do not think this version is nearly as good as the album version. And it was great to see this song performed live. So much energy. Their show in Atlanta was a ton of fun.
Uh, nope.

This is like her 3rd band, the only that got popular/mainstream. And much of their early success/popularity began on social media, music blogs and Hype Machine where it was just the music without any pictures of the band.
My opinion of them has changed quite a bit.
Lies is genuinely one of my favorite songs of the past year or so.
She is cute though.

Who knows, but it means we're probably hearing more songs than we would otherwise, so I'm cool with it. I love their sound and welcome any amount of covers they want to do, just as long as they don't literally turn into a cover band.

Really like this group. And the first album is surprisingly well recorded.
LP2 is all covers bruh that's the new thing
