If you require proof beyond my wild, inarticulate rantings as to why Meursault are the best new(ish) band to grace our shores in a very long time, just check out how perfectly they combine the verses of Radiohead’s ‘Bullet Proof… I Wish I Was’ and the chorus of La Roux’s ‘Bulletproof’ to make a jaunty folk tune. The cover came courtesy of a BBC Scotland session, and I sneakily ripped this from the 137th(!) episode of Mr. Toad’s excellent Toadcast podcasts*. These guys are just getting absurdly brilliant now, it’s almost unfair.

Meursault – Bulletproof (Radiohead/La Roux Cover) (YSI)

*Apologies for all the ‘toad’s and ‘cast’s there.
