A.V. Undercover 2011 soliciting song suggestions
The Onion sister website and pop culture/entertainment news source The A.V. Club is now soliciting song and artist suggestions for the 2011 edition of A.V. Undercover, where bands are brought in to cover songs from a predetermined list. Whenever a band covers a song, it is stricken from the list, meaning that each subsequent band has a smaller pool of songs to choose from.
The 2010 edition of A.V. Undercover featured such bands as Ted Leo And The Pharmacists, Alkaline Trio, Cursive, Motion City Soundtrack, Rise Against, Coheed and Cambria, Mates Of State, The Walkmen, Cymbals Eat Guitars, and Superchunk covering songs by the likes of Tears For Fears, Archers of Loaf, Jefferson Starship, Pavement, Nirvana, The Smiths, The Replacements, The Cure and Superchunk.
Voting closes on January 18, and the full song list will be announced in February.
