Thumbnail of The Kills The Kills

Tape Song (3:34)

Cover of Midnight Boom

From Midnight Boom and 2 other releases

The song references Joy Division’s She’s Lost Control in its minimalism, lyrics, and use of syncopated breathing (simulating the aerosols sprayed onto tape to create that track’s electronic trademark hi-hat sound). It was included in the 100 Indie/Rock Playlist in March 2008 and was earlier released on the Kills’ third album.
