- Beloved electropop quartet Ladytron are releasing a career retrospective entitled Best of Ladytron: 00-10, due out March 29 via Nettwerk. Bundled with the two-disc album is new single “Ace of Hz.” Watch the accompanying video below, wherein the band poses in an indoor forested wonderland.
- Nathan Williams’ divisive band Wavves has a new video for the title track from last year’s King of the Beach, directed by Focus Creeps. The clip follows the twenty-somethings as they do what twenty-somethings are wont to do (video games, weed, food), culminating in a (surprise!) trip to the beach.
