black midi's covers of songs by Taylor Swift, Talking Heads, Prince and more - released as bonus flexi-discs as part of their second album Cavalcade - have appeared online.
Last month black midi unveiled their second album Cavalcade, and those that pre-ordered vinyl copies of the record also received bonus flexi-discs featuring numerous covers.
Those covers, including Taylor Swift's "Love Story", a medley of Talking Heads' "Psycho Killer" and The Police's "Roxanne", King Crimson's "21st Century Schizoid Man", Prince's "Nothing Compares 2 U" and Captain Beefheart’s "Moonlight on Vermont", have since appeared on YouTube.
