The Walkmen “U2 Medley” (Stream)

March 8th, 2012

In celebration of The Walkmen finishing their new album, the band have leaked an unheard studio joke where they covered a medley of U2 songs. Here’s the statement they gave:

Hi everyone. Our album is finally done and we’re thrilled with it. We can’t wait to get it out there.

To celebrate the huge amount of hard work that went into it, we’re sharing this embarrassing recording of a spontaneous outburst of frustration that occurred during the very rigorous sessions. It’s our way of blowing off steam I guess. Please forgive us. Producer Phil Ek recorded it on the sly actually.

None of us really remembered it until the last day of mixing when Phil–who by that point had also lost his mind–sat down and patiently mixed it. Enjoy.

You can hear it over at the band’s blog.
