It's not a unique version (a bit heavier, more guitar driven) but I found this cover of Duran Duran's "Come Undone" that I like by a band called Cavo.
Oddly enough I was searching for a different cover of that song when I found this one. I used to play and promote shows in Toronto in mid 2000s and a band I knew did a good cover of that song but for the life of me I couldn't remember the name of the band so I started searching and came up empty but found this band's version instead.
Singer reminds me of the dude from poets of the fall. Shannon Roc gives me riot era Hayley Williams flashbacks.
The sound is very 2000s rock. And I don't mean that in a derogatory way.

Yeah I think 2000s rock sums them up pretty good. They have a couple other decent songs but they are a bit too much of that "post grunge" sound for me. They are doing an album of just covers and released 4 songs on spotify, all 80s covers so maybe they found a niche in rocking up popular 80s tunes. I had not heard of them until I found the come undone cover but apparently they did have a bit of success in late 2000s, toured with STP and Daughtry.

Speaking of daughtry did you catch their cover with Lzzy hale doing separate ways? Banger. Really good.
You come across nonpoint on your travels? I'm enjoying their version of "when doves cry", but their "in the air tonight" is great.

No, I haven't heard it. Will check it out.
