Cover Of The Week: Matthew Good does the Dead Kennedys

I'm a huge fan of Canadian singer/songwriter Matthew Good, and I'm totally loving his latest release, 2007's Hospital Music. On the record he covers the Dead Kennedys' 2001 tune, "Moon Over Marin", slowing it down into a folky version of its former punk rockin' self. The melancholy in the lyrics takes the forefront in Good's mellow arrangement, which I think allows the song to make an even greater emotional impact on the listener.
