Arcade Fire are contributing the previously unreleased/new(?) track "Lenin" to Dark Was The Night, a 4AD charity compilation for the Red Hot Organisation, an international charity dedicated to raising funds and awareness for HIV and AIDS.
We don't yet know for sure if "Lenin" is the same song as the fabled "When Lenin Was Little", or when the recording might date from.
The album is due on February 16th worldwide, and February 17th in North America.
The double cd/triple vinyl/download was produced by Aaron and Bryce Dessner of The National (and Clogs, etc) fame and it features a rather stunning tracklisting (details after the break). |

RALEIGH, NC – Senator Barack Obama's campaign today announced two concerts to headline the campaign's One-Stop Early Voting drive. Featuring Arcade Fire and Superchunk, the “Change Rocks” concerts in Carrboro and Greensboro will highlight the campaign's effort to encourage One-Stop Early Voting at college campuses and other locations across the state. Tickets can be picked up in Forsythe, Guilford, Randolph, Almanace, Orange, Durham, and Wake Counties during early voting hours starting Thursday April 24. A list of locations is below. "This is a defining moment for this country," said Win Butler of Arcade Fire. "We want to encourage people to get up, get out, and go vote."
"People are incredibly excited about this election and this primary," said Mac McCaughan of Superchunk. "Our music is a unique way to get people involved and participating."
Arcade Fire is a high-profile independent band in North America. Their first album, Funeral, and the single "Cold Wind” were nominated for Grammys in the best Alternative Rock Album and Best Song Written for Television, Film, or Other Media categories respectively. Their second album, Neon Bible, also was nominated for the Best Alternative Rock Album Grammy. The group recently came off a worldwide tour.
The band Superchunk was formed in 1989 in Chapel Hill. As one of the most popular independent bands in the country, they have played at concerts and festivals around the world. They have released more than eight albums, written a film score, and headlined benefit concerts.
The Obama campaign is making a statewide push to encourage voters to take advantage of the state's first-ever One Stop Early Voting process, which allows voters who are not registered or who have never voted before to register and vote at the same place, on the same day, all at once. Last week, the campaign announced 1-888-NC EARLY, a hotline that easily gives voters information on their early voting locations. This weekend, voters across North Carolina held more than 100 canvasses to take Senator Obama's message to voters and encourage them to vote early. Continue reading for info on tickets... |
