Much like the vid assembled for their full-album promo mashup, the clip for Polyphonic’s first single from The Fragile Army features nothing but still photos, sequenced together by Hal Samples to give DeLaughter’s black-clad battalion a sorely needed sense of melodrama and grandeur (’cause the fatigues and the double digit body count weren’t doing it). The result is stunning and a perfect compliment to Track 2′s sunny-day-in-Texas bombast. And if you’re missing the hippie choral-robed vibe: turn on, tune in, and hop out to the 2:40 mark for a glimpse at vintage Spree. (via GvsB)

If you missed it, MP3 awaits you here.

    I hadn’t been wondering what Arcade Fire would sound like if they rehearsed and learned to play, but if I had, I’d have assumed they’d still suck. And now I find that I would have been right.

    These guys really suck.

    Sounds like “Dreaming” by Blondie. But I like the Spree! :)

  4. I love it, they are so genuinely happy. Their sound is a lot tighter too.

    I second that. Someone tell DeLaughter he isn’t Win Butler.
