The pre-album single from Late of the Pier, 'Heartbeat', is arguably their weakest to date. BUT IT'S STILL BETTER THAN MOST OF THE STUFF BEING RELEASED IN THIS OR ANY OTHER WORLD RIGHT ABOUT NOW. The album's called Fantasy Black Channel, artwork to the left, which is a bit *huh?*; I was kinda expecting something like the logo variant on the right, but whatever dude.
There's another insane video right here. It features exploding heads - what more do you need to know?
And the mp3 of that very song you just heard (well, if you watched the video, with the sound on, as I presume you might possibly have done. If you haven't feel free to go back and watch it. In fact, feel obligated to, coz it's awesome, yeah?):
I think if this band wanted to, they could take over the universe. Maybe they're just too weird, but for anyone who appreciates the valued maxim that WEIRD IS AMAZING, prepare to be doubly amazed, for not only are Late of the Pier conventionally amazing, but they are also weird-ually amazing. Amazing amazing amazing...

*What are you doing here?* Blogging, apparently...
*Why?* Why not? Quit with the aggressive questioning, a'rite?
*What d'ya like?* Umm, music, movies and TV, literature, life most of the time.
*What music?* Right now, Mystery Jets, Elbow and LCD Soundsystem are making me happy. Also stuff like bright eyes, libertines, sufjan stevens, arcade fire, beck, pj harvey, pulp, the smiths...
*What movies?* eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, lost in translation, almost famous, magnolia, the big lebowski, edward scissorhands, pan's labyrinth, the royal tenenbaums &c; TV-wise, I'm thinking Six Feet Under, The Office (UK and even moreso US), The Sopranos, The Wire, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Firefly, Arrested Development, Spaced, Extras, Peep Show...
*What literature?* Been mostly reading my university reading list. At the moment, it's Shakespeare. If held at gunpoint, favourite book ever is 'Underworld' by Don DeLillo.
