Presents: Rip It Off

    The Raveonettes presents the anniversary cover album "Rip It Off" with covers by Dave Gahan & Kurt Uenala, Anton Newcombe (The Brian Jonestown Massacre), MØ, Brimheim, PRISMA, Trentemøller, The Black Angels and Eagles of Death Metal.

    In 2002, The Raveonettes released their seminal debut mini-album Whip It On. To mark its 20th anniversary, 8 artists have made an interpretation of each of its 8 tracks on Rip It Off. Whip It On hit music fans and critics alike like a sledgehammer. Some people hated it, some didn't even notice, but a lot of people absolutely LOVED having their minds blown by Sune Rose Wagner and Sharin Foo's hot blend of white noise and girl group pop songs with dark and sexy lyrics.

    In the summer of 2023, Crunchy Frog will release an album of covers entitled The Raveonettes presents: Rip It Off. In November 2022, Crunchy Frog released Trentemøller's contribution Cops On Our Tail featuring Icelandic artist DÍSA, while Dave Gahan & Kurt Uenala's cover of Chains dropped in January 2023. Other artists contributing are: PRISMA, MØ, Eagles of Death Metal, The Black Angels, The Brian Jonestown Massacre and Brimheim - each single is released a bout a month or two apart until album's release in August 2023.

    The culmination of twelve monthly 2016 singles from the acclaimed Danish duo. The Raveonettes have completed their RAVE-SOUND-OF-THE-MONTH which began at the start of 2016 where the band would upload a freshly recorded track on the last Friday of every month throughout the year. The 'anti-album' features a collection of new tracks that aren't bound by the constraints of the format. (2014 album Pe'ahi reached #5 on Billboard's "Heatseekers" and received praise from Mojo, NME, Boston Globe. They've issued seven albums since 2003, via Columbia, Vice, and their own Beat Dies imprint, all charting Top 20 in Denmark.)

    STAFF COMMENTS

    Barry says: As far as following the standard 'Record 12 tracks, master 12 tracks, release 12 tracks' format goes, the Raveonettes have failed miserably. Having recorded and released one of these tracks every month over 2016. As far as creating an exciting and dynamic collection of tracks go however, they have smashed it. Synthy grooves, melodic choruses and intricate breakdowns and the ever-beautiful interwoven vocals of Wagner and Foo.

    Pe'ahi

      Pe_ahi (/pe____hi_/ pay-ah-hee; is a place on the north shore of the island of Maui in the US state of Hawaii. It has lent its name to a big wave surfing break, also known as Jaws. During off season the spot is taken over by meth fuelled crazies and people are advised to not venture out there.

      Immersed in the surf-history of Southern California, where both Sharin and Sune reside, the album incorporates various elements from this culture into every song both lyrically and musically. The result is their most complex, intricate and autobiographical work to date.
