Metronomy have previously announced plans to release their new LP Love Letters on March 10 via Because Music/Elektra. The title track to the album now has a music video directed by the great Michel Gondry. The video sees the band performing inside a box with different scenes painted on each side and the band only viewable through holes that are a part of the illustrated landscapes. It also features a lot of tambourine.
Wednesday, February 12 at 5pm GMT the band will join Michel Gondry for a live chat with fans on Google Hangout via the band's YouTube channel. The chat will be moderated by British comedian Adam Buxton.
Metronomy will be heading out on tour beginning in March as well. See those dates below.
