Bonnie Trash share the video for their doomy, atmospheric cover of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds’ classic track ‘Red Right Hand’, paying homage to John Carpenter with the accompanying visuals. The track is taken from their new EP, ‘My Love Remains the Same’ which is out now via Hand Drawn Dracula.
‘My Love Remains the Same’ EP explores the impossibly heavy subject of love and loss and was announced with the ethereal single ‘Kisses Goodbye‘. Today, however, they share the EP’s cacophonous closing track, ‘Red Right Hand’. Taking on Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds’ most loved track is an ambitious move, but the Ontario band show they’re up to it with this contrasting and powerful take. Chugging guitars and echoing squalls of feedback accentuate the original song’s foreboding mood, while Sarafina’s evocative vocal delivery weaves an air of perilous suspense.
Speaking on the track and accompanying video, Emmalia and Sarafina comment:
“A minimalist doom take on Red Right Hand, This rendition is an homage to John Carpenter–invoking a monster that inflicts its dark and divine, desirable vengeance on the listener. Anger and resentment is readily accessible when feeling the loss of love. This is our demon.”
