"They were on Casablanca Records. They were the yin to Kiss’s yang. Kiss were dressed up in black and Angel were in white. They had this remarkable guitar player called Punky Meadows who Frank Zappa actually made fun of in songs. But he had some remarkable songs like Tower and Any Way You Want. They were almost proggish to a degree, but really great songs. I always wondered about doing a cover of the song Tower. The singer had this really weird voice. You have to be super open-minded to appreciate it because he has such a super-fast vibrato, and a lot of people won’t find that appealing. But they were one of my favourite bands growing up."

Tower of Song by Leonard Cohen

(0 Ratings)

Track

"‘Tower of Song’ was another one where the sonic palette influenced us, with this big vocal and not much happening around it - there's nothing to distract you from what he's saying. Lyrics are usually my number one thing, but this is actually the record where for the first time I was being influenced by a lot of the music rather than lyrics. I had that taken care of in my mind or something, it was more about sounds and felling. When I wrote ‘Beautiful Strangers’ I don’t think I’d heard ‘Tower of Song’, but I remember a lot of people comparing the two songs and that led me to that record. It's about creating a minimal sonic palette, where the lyrics are the most important thing."
