[Watch] Vampire Weekend and Steve Buscemi Go Bowling in their Latest Promo Video

Vampire Weekend and their new pal Steve Buscemi were last seen hanging out with New York mayor candidate Bill de Blasio, and now they're handing out flyers and going bowling. Their new promo video follows the awkwardly charming group as they pass out flyers on the train on their way to Melody Lanes bowling alley in Brooklyn. Once there, we learn quite a lot about these guys. First, Steve Buscemi is good at giving bowling advice but not taking it. Second, he does not respond well to quotes from The Big Lebowski. Check it out below.

Vampire Weekend is set to play New York's Roseland Ballroom on April 28th, which Buscemi will direct for a live webcast.

[Watch] Daft Punk Continue The Collaborators Video Series with Panda Bear

Daft Punk continue their collaborators video series, and next up is Animal Collective member Panda Bear (aka Noah Lennox). On the duo's upcoming album Random Access Memories, Lennox provides vocals on the song "Doin' It Right."

During the video, Lennox describes his first coming into contact with Daft Punk's music, as he came to understand the ritual of dancing after seeing their video for "Around The World." He, like many of us, has deep connections to the duo's 1997 album Homework. He continues, describing his nervousness leading up to his time in Paris with Daft Punk. After three days in the studio, Lennox said it all came together "right at the last moment." Check out the video below.

[News] Wild Nothing Announces New 'Empty Estate' EP

Wild Nothing's sophomore album Nocturne was a blissful dreamscape, seemingly overlooked as one of last year's great dream pop records. Jack Tatum quickly returns, bringing us a new EP titled Empty Estate. Recorded this past January, the EP sees Tatum "exploring new sounds, new instruments and a new voice for Wild Nothing."

"A Dancing Shell" is our first sense of what to expect from the seven-track EP, a bright track glistening with snythesizers. The bassline alone is fantastic, plucking along with confidence. Tatum's vocals are also much more expansive than before, drifting from monotone deepness to reverbed airiness. I like what I'm hearing. Check out the song below alongside it's colorful, geometric video.

Empty Estate Tracklist:
01. The Body In Rainfall
02. Ocean Repeating (Big-eyed Girl)
03. On Guyot
04. Ride
05. Data World
06. A Dancing Shell
07. Hachiko

[Watch] Check Out Fitz and The Tantrums' Video for "Out Of My League"

When talking on their upcoming sophomore album, Fitz and The Tantrums frontman Michael Fitzpatrick said that the "Eighties influence has kind of come to the foreground, and the Sixties soul is kind of layered behind that." That was definitely evident in their lead single "Out Of My League," an anthemic track full of sweeping synthesizers and vocal effects. The video for the song is equally as influenced by the Eighties, with Fitz and co. in a kaliedoscopic computerized landscape. Watch the Jordan Bahat-directed clip below.

Fitz and The Tantrums' sophomore album More Than Just A Dream is out on May 7th.

[Watch] Muse - "Panic Station" (Official Video)

Muse are probably one of the biggest bands in the world right now. Their latest release, The 2nd Law, may have divided opinion, but they sure as hell look like they're having fun with it. The video they released late yesterday to accompany the out there track "Panic Station" is a great example of a band not taking themselves too seriously. I mean, look at it. Strutting around in absolutely ridiculous outfits it's sure to say these rock titans still find it amusing to poke fun at themselves and I say, good on 'em. The band have been known to play pranks and mess around since the early oughties. They have, on numerous occasions, played badly set up kits, done forward rolls, and even changed instruments when asked to mime on TV shows, and even gone as far as to be interviewed as one another afterwards.

Bands take note: it's all just a bit of fun, so don't take yourselves seriously 24/7. The dinosaur, giant lady, slap bass, feather jacket filled video can be seen above.

[Album Stream] Deerhunter - 'Monomania'

Give the album a listen and let us know what you think. Check it out below or at NPR.org.

[Watch] RZA Joins James Blake On Stage at Coachella

While weekend two of Coachella winded down without much noise, there was one moment that stood out. During his performance last night James Blake was joined by RZA, where the two performed their collaborative cut from Overgrown. While RZA hadn't fully memorized the lyrics to "Take a Fall for Me" (and really, can we fault him for that?), it was still fantastic to see the two on stage together. Check out the performance below.

All it costs to download the remix is a tweet, and if you don't want to do that Ryan has some advice:
