The Witches : Shivers



I came upon this Boys Next Door cover by a band called The Witches. They are from Israel and were apparently huge in the early to mid nineties. The lead singer died in a car accident in 1997. Nick Cave does background vocals on this, which is fitting since it is his song. This is a great version of this tune. Very moody, very fitting. I'm going to try and find some of this stuff online. I need to find a good place online to shop for LP's. The Witches translates to Hamechashefot in Israeli. Awesome.

    It is indeed a great version.

    But it's not Cave's song, instead the late Rowland S. Howard.
