The Last Shadow Puppets release The Dream Synopsis EP on Friday, 2 December 2016. To tease it's release they released a cover of Leonard Cohen’s ‘Is This What You Wanted’, with a video directed by Focus Creeps. Watch it on below.
The EP, titled, was recorded live in one day at Future-Past Studios, Hudson NY and features new versions of album favourites ‘Aviation’ and ‘The Dream Synopsis’ alongside a selection of cover versions, first heard live during The Last Shadow Puppets’ summer touring.
The selection deatures covers of the coolest Frenchman to have ever lived, Jaques Dutronc, post-punk legends, The Fall, and lesser-known, short-lived Bristol-based post punk group Glaxo Babies.
That’s some fine choices and December can’t come quickly enough but enjoy the Leonard Cohen cover for now and watch the vintage accompanying video and it’s heavy focus on Alex Turner, with Miles Kane slipping to the background.
