Diane Birch with The Phenomenal Handclap Band - This Corrosion
Sisters of Mercy cover
Diane Birch and The Phenomenal Handclap Band reworked the Sisters of Mercy’s classic This Corrosion and it became a modern gospel song. Woooohoooo!
Diane Birch has also covered Kiss Them for Me (Siouxsie & the Banshees), Bring on the Dancing Horses (Echo & the Bunnymen), Atmosphere (Joy Division), Primary (The Cure), Tarantula (This Mortal Coil) and A Strange Kind of Love (Peter Murphy). The result is The Velveteen Age EP, features backing support by New York’s the Phenomenal Handclap Band.


















Can’t resist being pedantic and pointing out that “Tarantula” was originally by Colourbox (although TMC’s version is probably more well known)
Awesome tracklisting though, even if they are setting the bar incredibly high – willing them to succeed!
I cannot stop listening to this track! I’ll definitely be picking up the EP when it comes out.
uh wasn’t there a soundcloud thing here. just a few minutes ago ???
