Phoenix is a French alternative rock band started during their childhood by Thomas Mars, Deck D’Arcy, Christian Mazzalai and Laurent Brancowitz in the suburb of Versailles. They sound sort of like a grown up MGMT, but they haven’t caught on as much. So you should probably get into them before douchebags that wear backwards hats and drink jagerbombs get into them. Then when the wrong people start liking them, you can claim previous ownership while distancing yourself from the trifling masses.<\/p>\n
The best video for them isn’t even by them<\/em> — it’s a fan video mashup mixing Lisztomania (from the Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix album<\/a>) with clips from famous 80’s movies:<\/p>\n
