Motel Pools and TV on the Radio’s Kyp Malone Unravel Butthole Surfers’ ‘Human Cannonball’

Motel Pools is the gritty and garage-y guise of California-based songwriter Chiara Angelicola. After releasing a pair of singles late last year — including one that featured Man Man’s head weirdo Honus Honus — she’ll release a self-titled EP next week. On that release is an unhinged cover of the Butthole Surfers’ already wild Locust Abortion Technician track “Human Cannonball.” TV on the Radio‘s Kyp Malone (who produced the whole EP) lends his characteristic gruff background vocals, but the grit and grime is all Angelicola. Listen to it in full below, before Motel Pools hits stores on June 2.
