Genres: Alternative Rock, Funk Rock, Dance-Punk. In general, the songs are more altered the further they are out of Electric Six’s wheelhouse, so not much for “Nice Guy”, but a funkified “Slippery”. Electric Six discography and songs: Music profile for Electric Six, formed 2002. And the songs chosen generally aren’t the career-making singles, save The Jam’s amazing “That’s Entertainment” & Alice Cooper’s “No More Mister Nice Guy”, but the tier below such as Pixies’ “Hey”, Talking Heads’ “Slippery”, and INXS’ “Don’t Change”. While some of the artists aren’t so surprising, such as KISS, Alice Cooper, or even INXS (they’ve covered INXS single “Never Tear Us Apart” live – QRO video), there are also some that go more indie such as Pixies & Talking Heads, plus the likes of Roky Erickson and The Jam. It’s been three years since the band’s last, Bride of the Devil ( QRO review), eons in Electric time, yet their return isn’t another giant disco-rock album for this actual apocalypse, but a covers record, Streets of Gold – that’s made up of giant disco-rock anthems for this actual apocalypse.
The COVID epidemic knocked down even the most prolific artists, as even if you weren’t on the road, you also had a hard time getting into the studio.
