French collective Nouvelle Vague know how to do a smashing cover. Not only is their album artwork brilliant, they cover new wave greats from Buzzcocks to XTC in strikingly original ways. As the title of this best of suggests, Nouvelle Vague always strive to stand out from the rest and they haven’t failed yet.
