Owen Pallett Finally Brings More Fantasy
New Album, New Sound, Same Strings

While we're on the subject of music, we'd like to direct your attention to Pitchfork - the online music magazine. They're reporting that Arcade Fire's Owen Pallett's side project, Final Fantasy, will be recording a new album. Pallett - whose string skills and cum-stained conversations won our hearts long ago - tells Pitchfork:

Right now I'm at work on some 7"s and some EPs... Down the line, I'll follow up He Poos Clouds with an LP with the inoffensive/boring title of Heartland... It's another concept album, but this one has an overarching narrative. A plot arc, if you will. Like a Batman comic or... or... a 19th century Romantic song cycle like [Robert Schumann's] Dichterliebe...

Recording wise, it's going to sound exactly like He Poos Clouds but with better microphones, better writing and we're using compressors to make it sound taut and clicky. No more weak, fey shit! Except the singing. That will always be tacky.

Tacky never sounded so good.
