The Wombats "Moving To New York"

Remember the excellent video for "Let's Dance to Joy Division"? Well, I like this new one too...especially how Matthew Murphy talks to his hampster.

A Guide to Love, Loss and Desperation was released on November 7th, and the single for "Moving to New York" is due out on January 14th. The band will be touring the UK through December.

Let's dance to Joy Division in hotel rooms while wondering if our life is a not a movie or maybe...

What an awful title for a post. I'm so glad I came up with it.

Okkervil River "Our Life Is Not A Movie or Maybe"

I know I haven't done a very good job blogging about Okkervil River's newest album, The Stage Names (released August 7th), but that doesn't mean I haven't been digging it.

I posted about the Wombats' upcoming single for "Let's Dance To Joy Division" two days ago, but I didn't realize there was already a music video for it.

I. LOVE. THE. WOMBATS. (yes! they're NOT Canadian...they're from Liverpool) I may hold a secret hatred for Joy Division, but I love this song from their newest yet-to-be-released single (due October 15th):

Let's dance to Joy Division!
and celebrate the irony
Everything is going wrong
But we're so happy!
