"Battleship Chains" is a song written by Terry Anderson and made famous by the band the Georgia Satellites in 1986. Appearing on their debut album, It reached number 86 on the Billboard Hot 100.[1] The song also appeared on the album Hindu Love Gods by the band Hindu Love Gods, a collaboration between members of R.E.M. and Warren Zevon.
Ok...so, Terry Anderson of The Woods wrote this song. The Georgia Satellites recorded it first. The Woods recorded it later. The Wildhearts recorded it and then the Volbeats. I like the Wildhearts version the best, but always give the writer props above all else.
The only member of Lindisfarne and Widowmaker was Paul the drummer iirc. I worked with him in 2006/7 in Gateshead, what a great guy. He made the working day a laugh a minute
awesome band covering an awesome song... awesome

It’s not “the Volbeats.” It’s just Volbeat. 😂😂😂😂😂

Izzy Stradlin does a great cover of this as well.
