Hear Kevin Devine Cover Elliott Smith’s “King’s Crossing”

From the forthcoming Fadeaway Records comp.

After a 10+ year hiatus, Fadeaway Records would like you to know that they are back. And judging by the lineup they’ve got for their upcoming compilation, they would really like you to know. The triple LP is a show of force, with 35 rare and unreleased old and new material from tons of bands. Just check out that tracklist below.

We had the chance to premiere a song, so obviously, we chose Kevin Devine’s cover of the most depressing song ever written, Elliott Smith’s “King’s Crossing,” a song about addiction and suicide that is only made more depressing by the fact that it was released after Smith killed himself. Anyway, happy Monday!
