Crossword Smiles: Puppets

Detroit indie pop duo Crossword Smiles tried their hand at covering Depeche Mode's Puppets. For an outfit with an optimistic outlook on life, this must have been quite challenge. It shouldn't have worked, but it did. Their power pop take on the tale of a rather scary guy being in control turned the song into twisted love song. It would be cool if they play it as a surprise at the record release show for their Consequences & Detours album.
