There’s something quietly brave about covering a song as well known and emotionally loaded as Angel Olsen’s masterpiece “Unfucktheworld”. There’s Talk approach it with care and that choice pays off. Instead of reshaping the song or pushing it into a new direction, the trio keeps the same atmosphere and feeling that made the original so lasting. At the same time, it still feels like a There’s Talk recording. not a copy.
The arrangement stays close to the source. The piano plays a key role and sets the tone early. giving the track a steady base. The production is smooth with a mix that feels balanced and calm without sounding flat. The vocal delivery follows a similar tone and range as the original. which helps keep the emotional weight intact. It fits the song well and blends nicely with the surrounding layers. Even without major changes in sound or mood. the band manages to make the cover feel personal through subtle choices and a clear sense of control.
This cover is thoughtful and complete. I honestly loved how faithful yet confident it sounds and for me. it’s one of those rare covers that I’d gladly keep alongside the original.
