It's already going to be one amazing tour, but as previously announced before, Art Brut and We Are Scientists are covering each others' song. They've finished recording the covers and will be available at shows during the co-headlining tour this fall beginning September 18th. WAS did a cover of "Bang Bang Rock & Roll" while Art Brut covered "The Great Escape". How do these tracks sound like? According to NME, "'Bang Bang Rock & Roll' like the Velvet Underground, in response to Art Brut's lyrics 'I don't like the sound of the Velvet Underground, I don't like the sound that second time around'" and Art Brut recreated 'The Great Escape' as a "homage to Lynyrd Skynyrd's 'Free Bird'."
