Haven’t been keeping up with our friends in the Whispertown 2000 lately, but rest assured Cannibal Cheerleader faithful, the LA-based quartet is alive and kicking. In fact, the band are just about to begin their first UK tour ever – hopefully they blog it in their overly addicting Tour Tumblr. The band’s sophomore LP Swim was one of our favorites of last year and “From the Start” was a real standout track – check out the video for it below, directed by none other than Morgan Nagler’s brother! Check it folks (we may be late on this one, but haven’t really seen it ’round the blogosphere yet!).

ROLO TOMASSI TOURING WITH GALLOWS.
Just a quick update for those Cannibal Cheerleader fans not living in the UK (though apparently we have a lot of fans from across the pond, hmmm), two of our favorite acts right now London’s Gallows (whose Grey Britain is bloody ferocious) and Sheffield’s Rolo Tomassi (long time CC faves, headliners of our SXSW party, and punk rock masters of tomorrow) are tearing up the British Isles with a one-two rip-and-snarl of punk rock mastery. If there was ever a reason to make a trip from Austin to Portsmouth, now’s the time.

Gallows – “I Dread The Night”
Rolo Tomassi – “Beatrotter”

SCHOOL OF SEVEN BELLS TOUR DIARY.
One of our favorite psych-rocking Brooklyn-based trios (and we know there’s probably a bunch of ‘em) School of Seven Bells have a really cool Tour Diary that you can access via their homepage. Definitely worth checking out if only for the cool tour pictures and trippy site design. Here’s hoping this group releases more material soon! They’ll be playing here in Austin on June 2nd at Mohawk and you know we’ll be first in line for that one.

School of Seven Bells – “Chain”

GRAND OLE PARTY TO TOUR WITH YYYS.
It’s official today – all of our favorite bands are hooking up! This time it’s the inimitable Yeah Yeah Yeahs with the fantastic San Diego trio and old-school Cannibal Cheerleader fave Grand Ole Party. Check out the dates on the GOP myspace (the only GOP this Austinite could ever get behind!).

Grand Ole Party – “Look Out Young Son”
Yeah Yeah Yeahs – “Hysteric (Acoustic Version)”

NEW KILLERS VIDEO.
We leave you fiends today with the Killers’ excellent rendition of their newest single “Dustland Fairytale” from their Day & Age LP – guitar-rock gods this quartet, gods we say! And Letterman appears to think so too.


The Killers – “Four Winds”
