French group Phoenix have made some great pop records for most of this decade, with it seems only the American rock critics taking much notice (Pitchfork love ‘em to death). Well hopefully ‘Lizstomania’ from their fantastic new album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix will change all that, it has summer smash written all over it. This fantastic unofficial video mash-up takes clips from the The Breakfast Club and Pretty In Pink to brilliantly soundtrack Phoenix’s latest single. And don’t you just love Molly Ringwald’s kooky 80′s dance moves….ENJOY
The band have also offered up all the constituent parts of the track for free via their website, which has not only led to a slew of remixes being made in bedrooms and home studios everywhere, but a good deal of them have started appearing on music blogs across the globe (I’ve found 8 so far), making Phoenix the most blogged about artist on Hype Machine today.
