[Listen] The Japanese Popstars - "Joshua"
Check out the latest single, "Joshua" from electro band The Japanese Popstars (who are neither Japanese or popstars, btw). The single features vocals from Tom Smith from The Editors, which was a really nice touch to the song, I might add.
The single is due to drop on June 13th, with the upcoming album, Controlling Your Allegiance dropping on June 20th. The album is said to have collaborations with other artists in addition to Tom Smith, including: Robert Smith, Jon Spencer (Blues Explosion), Green Velvet and psych folk singer James Vincent McMorrow.
For more fun with "Joshua", head on over to their Facebook page where you can interact with the animated baboon featured in the above video. With the app you can create your own interactive video of the song where the baboon actually eats any of your friends per your choosing.
