The Parasites: Last Caress 7" (1990)



MRML's been on a bit of a Parasites jag (see HERE). After all, any band who goes from covering The Beatles to The  Misfits is right in our wheel house.



This 1990 single features the  band (then with with Ronnie Parasite on bass and Rob Goellner on drums) doing a cover of their fellow New Jersey-ite, Glen Danzig's shock-horror classic, "Last Caress" and a demo of "Fool For You" with Dave "Nikki" Parasite playing all the instruments. Whereas Metallica made the song heavier, The Parasites play up the pop to ridiculously ironic effect.

 


Hey Parasites partisans! let us know what you think of this pop-take on the 'Fits classic in the COMMENTS section (which is where you'll find the Last Caress 7" link).
