Compilation of various artists covering GG Allin songs, but for G-rated audience.

From Pitchfork: The cult-beloved New Jersey freeform radio station WFMU is having its annual pledge drive this month, and Tom Scharpling, host of the comedy/music show "The Best Show", is pitching in, as always. "The Best Show"'s two fundraising programs run from 9 to midnight eastern tonight and March 8, and Scharpling is hosting a number of famous friends. Tonight, Ted Leo and the New Pornographers frontman A.C. Newman will stop by to play music. And anyone who pledges $75 or more to WFMU during Scharpling's show gets a prize pack that includes Rated GG, a vinyl single with GG Allin covers from a truly unlikely cast that includes Death Cab for Cutie's Ben Gibbard, the Mountain Goats, Ty Segall, Fucked Up, and Leo.

''Year Of The Tiger''

So filled with sorrow, so filled with hate, otherwise empty, a relic of grace...

Promotional info:
Since 2006, Fucked Up have been releasing an annual 12" single on each Chinese New Year. "Year Of The Tiger" is an anthemic progressive rock masterpiece featuring guests Jim Jarmusch, Annie-Claude Deschênes and Austra. The 15-minute long track features the band's familiar layers of guitar and roaring vocals, taken to a new level with the addition of piano, Jarmusch's dark recitations and Deschênes's gorgeous crescendos, in this menacing but uplifting story about the predation of predators. $1 from the sale of each record donated to the Save The Tiger fund.


It's about a Tiger (From Pitchfork review):
Total running time of Year of the Tiger: 37:35. Total running time of the Ramones' debut album: 29:04. Total running time of Nick Drake's Pink Moon: 28:22. Total running time of Fela Kuti's Expensive Shit: 24:13. Let's call this an album, OK? In any case, Fucked Up have been releasing long songs for each year of the Chinese Zodiac since 2006, although they're running a little behind at the moment. (The Year of the Tiger ended in February 2011; we've passed through the Rabbit Year and are now in the Dragon Year.)

Year of the Tiger is a pair of tracks that have been around for a while-- the band claimed to have finished the title song almost two years ago. It's the first music we've heard from the band in a while that doesn't have some formal connection to their David Comes to Life project. "Year of the Tiger" itself is a 15-minute song with a very long lyric (apparently by guitarist Mike Haliechuk) about an aging tiger approaching his death.
