When it comes to covers, Downtown Boys have a wicked knack for drawing the punk spirit out of unexpected places. On their 2015 LP Full Communism, the Providence band took Springsteen to cathartic heights with a thrashing spin on “Dancing In The Dark.” Now, they’ve shared a new version of Selena’s Amor Prohibido classic “Fotos y Recuerdos,” and yeah, it’s terrific. The new single was produced by Fugazi’s Guy Picciotto, who worked with the band on last year’s Cost Of Living LP. Listen to “Fotos Y Recuerdos” below.
