about

Happy birthday Conor Oberst.
Here's our long-lost cover of Bright Eyes' "Hit the Switch" from their 2005 album Digital Ash in a Digital Urn.
Originally released on the Juicebox Recording Co. compilation Our Favourite Songs in 2010.

Here's what we said about it then
(pulled from the original release):
STUCK OUT HERE – Hit the Switch (Bright Eyes)
Cam Laurie: Me and Ivan were losers in high school: Ivan listened to Fall Out Boy, I had glasses. We also held a shared affinity for Bright Eyes, both expressing it constantly and embarrassingly at coffee houses through covers and nasally imitations. For some reason, we started a punk band and tried really hard to imitate Against Me! and the Clash. But we never let go of that serious dude-crush for Conor Oberst and how he jumps from commentary on the world around him to calling himself out on his own bullshit, while still keeping at least some semblance of humour about the whole big kerfuffle. And yeah, the whole band would probably still collectively shit our pants if we met him. Totally.

Thanks to Aaron and Sam at Juicebox, all the bands on the original comp, Rob McKercher for the production, and our beloved benevolent inspiration and namesake, Conor Oberst and Bright Eyes.
