Putzing around the kitchen I heard a song on OPB's In House that sounded familiar, although I couldn't immediately figure out the song or artist. Around came the chorus: "Chew your meat for you, pass it back and forth, in a passionate kiss," and I was back on the bus in eighth grade listening to "Nevermind" on my Walkman and trying to avoid getting my ass kicked.

Horse Feather's version of "Drain You" pulls the focus from Cobain's growl to a more intimate examination of whatever "Drain You" is about (mastication, parastic nature of relationships, take your pick). I really love this version of Nirvana's song. 

Can't wait to see Horse Feathers when they return home to Portland. Our readers in Belgium, Holland, and Switzerland should consider seeing them in March and April on their EU tour. Until then I'll have to be content watching them on OPB's Studio Sessions.
