Powerpoppers Quietdrive from Minneapolis, Minnesota, began a fundraising project on Kickstarter last Summer and on July 31, 2011, just two hours before their deadline, the band exceeded their goal of $15,000 to record the cover album "Your Record / Our Spin". Quietdrive began recording the album in October 2011 and it's finally available now.
The record includes 10 songs voted by Kickstarter-donating fans. Among them, we find a great powerpop remake of the classic Toto song "Africa", a brilliant, moving interpretation of "Say Say Say", originally sung by Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson, and an exhilarating tumble-dries version of the famous Night Ranger track "Sister Christian".
