Not sure if there are any Colleen Green fans here… I’ve always enjoyed her music, she has a slacker lo-fi pop-punk thing going on. She also has a sense of humor which makes her better than… most musicians, in terms of being a normal human.
This album is a cover of Blink 182s Dude Ranch that was released as a bandcamp exclusive and takes that classic and replaces the upbeat pop-punk with a bass-and-vocals-only reimagining of the album. It’s very low key and contemplative and makes me realize just how emo Blink 182s lyrics were at that point.
Check it out and the rest of her music also if you’re not familiar.

I bought this album, I assuke after it was featured on Bandcamp Daily in some form. As you say its a great way to enjoy the lyrics you alredy know in a new way. I don’t know if its the case but the album really sounds like she just hit record and dis it all in one take.

Just listened to the 2 tracks up as a taster. Nice idea.
Hadn’t made it to “I’m Sorry” in a while, and her annunciation on “We’re unstoppabewal- indestructabewal” is kinda hilarious. Especially since on the original track they don’t even really do that socal blink 182 vowel thing and say it mostly normal.
