Good news! Australian eight piece Architecture In Helsinki are bringing their ecstatic Arcade-Fire-for-the-under-fives style of indie-pop joy to our shores early next month.

July
3rd - London, Brixton Windmill (DiS All Day BBQ)
5th - London, Club Fandango
6th - London, Barfly
7th - Cambridge, Portland Arms
8th - Liverpool, Barfly
9th - Nottingham, The Social
12th - Glasgow, Mono

Having supported the likes of David Byrne, The Polyphonic Spree and Belle & Sebastian, these shows anticipate the release of their second album, the superb 'In Case We Die', later this year. If you're impatient however, it's available on import from Amazon and for legal download from eMusic.

I'm not sure whether it's due to them having a great photographer or simply knowing how to pose, but every photo of them appears to be from (the cool part of) heaven.

I think I might even go to all 3 of the London gigs. In Case We Die and Fingers Crossed are both amazing.

For those of you who have just returned from Glastonbury, hope you’ve recovered somewhat. I’ve still got floppy limbs and a general feeling of bodily weirdness...although no trench foot thank god. Ace!
