Sunset Rubdown are back. Wolf Parade’s Spencer Krug started Sunset Rubdown as a solo project in 2005, and it quickly expanded into a full four-piece band. Within a few years, the group released four albums. The most recent of them was 2009’s Dragonslayer. The same year that Dragonslayer came out, Sunset Rubdown broke up; they played their final show in Tokyo. Krug has said that Sunset Rubdown would never return, and he started Moonface, another solo project. Next year, however, Sunset Rubdown are coming back to tour once again.

Skeletons are to indie rock videos in '09 what bootie girls are to hip-hop clips forever. I have no idea what this means (eat a sandwich?), but it's a motif we've seen in one form or another via Fever Ray, Mi And L'Au, Pictureplane, Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, Abe Vigoda, and we'll stop there. Sunset Rubdown carry on the tradition for Dragonsl...

Says Mark 'The Nuc' Nicol, "My heart started back up after the electrical shock. I woke up feeling like I was suffocating and was delirious. Then I passed out for an hour, woke back up and saw the hair singed on my leg. Only then I knew." Check the gnarly burn.
