Watch Mac DeMarco Cover Weezer’s “Undone – The Sweater Song”
Here’s some further evidence that Weezer’s “Undone – The Sweater Song” is a truly great piece of music: It has survived Mac DeMarco’s best attempts to turn it into something godawful. DeMarco, the gap-toothed and knowingly slapdash indie rocker, is the latest participant in the A.V. Club’s “A.V. Undercover” video series, which pairs indie bands up with unlikely covers, and he and his bandmates showed absolutely zero reverence for the original article in their goofball-ass session. Watch it below, and if it bothers you when people use “chill” as an adjective, skip the intro.
DeMarco’s album 2 is out now on Captured Tracks.
