Mixed reaction to that "Iko Iko" cover.
Let's see what the peanut gallery thinks of Kill Peaches' robot rock take on a Fleetwood Mac classic. I discovered this from KissAtlanta's must-visit July Mix. Can't find ANYTHING else about this band on the Internerd. Info appreciated.
Kill Peaches - "Dreams" (MP3)
Sure beats Courtney Love's "Gold Dust Woman."
Full disclosure: Stereogum is a huge Lindsey Buckingham fan and learned Travis Picking listening to Out Of The Cradle. I wish he'd stop fucking around and put out a new album ready.
UPDATE: Preston's got the scoop, exclusively for Stereogum readers:

Hahaha... I am the soul keeper of the true source of Kill Peaches... and I will leak it to only you. It was done by my little brother... Jordan. You probably know him formally as Snowden. He gets a bug every so often to do a fun cover, but didn't want to do the covers as Snowden. The local dj's (myself included) had been playing Time Of The Season too much and half-jokingly started begging for more covers of old songs that were kind of dancey, but not quite enough. Jordan went home and did this remake in his bedroom in a few hours. He mixed it in his car, on a laptop and headphones.... and used a wireless connection from a coffee shop nearby to send it to me just in time for my gig the next night. Kill Peaches was chosen as the name... because right when he got the idea to do the remake... the dj played peaches... who jordan doesn't particularly care for. So... there's the story. You're the first to know.
Thanks Pres!
