Alexisonfire have shared a new video for their cover of Doughboys’ “Neighbourhood Villain.” You can check that out below. The track is from the band’s newly released covers EP “Copies Of Old Masters Volume 1.”
Alexisonfire’s George Pettit commented:
“‘Neighbourhood Villain‘ has a real coming-of-age, mischief vibe that transports me right back to a time when teenagers in small towns used to shoot out street lights with BB guns from their Haro Sport BMX bikes — back pegs only so you can double your buddy to the Beckers to shoplift some Bonkers.”
Doughboys’ John Kashner added:
“I thought the Alexisonfire version of ‘Neighbourhood Villain’ was kind of true to the original. Actually, I thought it was better than the original, quite honestly. To hear such an awesome Toronto band do our song, we’re just grateful and humbled…the fact that a band like that is doing a song I wrote is really flattering.”
