To celebrate the ten year anniversary of The Stroke's debut album Is This It, Stereogum asked eleven artists to cover each of its tracks. Perhaps the truest cover of the bunch, and the best, is Real Estate’s unruffled take on the strange menace of "Barely Legal." Singer Martin Courtney delivers sour-whiskey squalls like I just want to turn you down/ I just want to turn you around with a weird, entrancing tenderness. Download the gentle gem and watch a gnarly live performance of the original, below.
