New I'm From Barcelona - "Music Killed Me" (& "Paper Planes" Video)
I'm From Barcelona's new single "Paper Planes" comes from the Swedes's forthcoming sophomore album, the ominously titled Who Killed Harry Houdini?. As previously reported, it's not an M.I.A. cover. You'll have that reaffirmed in the song's video, where mustached Emanuel Lundgren settles into an elevator, brushes his teeth, shaves, and otherwise preps for a new day before witnessing a couple going at it, an old guy blowing his horn, and a kid beating his drum. In turn, Lundgren finds a fews ways to clear his own head before getting off.
You can also listen to the new song "Music Killed Me" at the troupe's MySpace or hand over your email address and download it here. It's less confetti appropriate than most of their tracks.
Who Killed Harry Houdini? is out 10/14 on Mute.

Adam Sandler filtered through the comic genius of the Swedes? I have contempt for this type of shit at this point. George Bush can become president, Andy Samburg can make on snl? Jimmy Fallon can take over Conan? Something ain't right peoples...
Score = -1
In light of the word choices of "going at it", "blowing his horn", and "beating his drum", you may want to add "the elevator" to the end of "Lundgren finds a fews ways clear his own head before getting off."
You know, to avoid the inevitable snickers.

I did that on purpose, actually. I'm really immature.

Whew. I thought I was the only one who never left junior high. ;)
