Premiere: The Philistines Jr. – ‘NYC’

A remarkable cover of the much-loved Interpol song...

The Philistines Jr. began more than 25 years ago, with brothers Peter and Tarquin Katis uniting to forge intriguing albums, numerous Peel sessions, and countless shows.

The duo then took a seat back, with Peter Katis gaining widespread plaudits for his production work with The National, Frightened Rabbit, and more.

But now they're back. The Philistines Jr. are working on new material, with a refreshed approach and countless new ideas.

Heading into the studio, the pair have constructed an enthralling, moonlight soaked version of Interpol's 'NYC'.

The stark cover is given a refreshing sheen by virtue of the guest vocalists: Tarquin's own children, Henry (14) and Helen (10).
