Kurt Vile covers Chastity Belt song, "This Time of Night"
The new cover serves as the second half of a limited edition Suicide Squeeze-issued 7”, which sees both Kurt Vile and Courtney Barnett cover Chastity Belt songs.
The K-side cover arrives ahead of the one-time vinyl pressing limited to 1500 on Suicide Squeeze. The accompanying C-side features Courtney Barnett's take on "Different Now" which appeared alongside “This Time of Night” on the 2017 album I Used to Spend So Much Time Alone.
"When I first met Chastity Belt it was Halloween 2015 in Amsterdam and they were all wearing pointy elf ears. I joke with them that ever since I saw them with those pointy ears I knew… but what? Maybe that we were soul mates! I missed their set that night but we had alotta fun anyways," says Vile. "A couple yrs later I heard a joint interview / podcast with Julia (of Chazzy) and Courtney (Barnett!) and then I immediately played Chazzy’s latest album: I Used To Spend So Much Time Alone. It hit me hard right away… So catchy but with lyrics both hilarious while true to life… sad and beautiful all at once… nostalgic hooks, great songs
"This Time of Night" / "Different Now" will be available on 27 October.
