More Yelle! Getting ready for their new album on September 30th, which I've already pre-ordered.
This is promo video created for their 2011 Safari Disco Club tour, done in a style vaguely reminiscent of a TV5 Monde/France24 weather forecast.
OK, so we Americans are seen as sort of tacky-crazy, busy stuffing our faces with rich foods . . . or maybe we just know our pleasures and go for them without worrying what anyone else thinks.
But then there's the tribute to poor Sweden--putting together a Lack table in its honor.
Not sure I fully got the Danish, Norwegian, or Chilean references. The German one is a little creepy--but in a Cabinet of Doctor Caligari/Nosferatu kind of way.
In a word, formidable! We should all be this clever when promo-ing our own work.
Looks like for Tour 2014, Yelle is appearing just up the road in Cleveland. (Not Pittsburgh, naturellement.) I smell road trip . . . .
