We mentioned the standard version and Radioclit remix of Architecture In Helsinki's "That Beep ," a song that (at the time) they said may or may not be on their forthcoming fourth album Vision Revisiom . We're still not sure about that -- the band is supposedly "hard at work" on the new collection -- but we do know "That Beep"'s being released as a digital single with four versions of the track...

Man, Architecture in Helsinki have really done a 180 in the past two years. In just a short time they've gone from twee pop to some 80s-inspired strangeness. But while I prefer their first two albums, I still love their new stuff. "That Beep" is curious little song with a video to match. It's wild [...]

I thought I was safe.I thought I had cleverly hidden my whereabouts with that whole I-was-really-a-viking-legend thing. I had provided photo documentation and everything. I was sure that my enemies had bought my demise and had moved on to their next targets, resting in a false sense of security until I would be able to make my own move.Six days in a shit-encrusted dump later,I finally emerged ...

6.5 STARS (out of 10) It's been about three years since Architecture In Helsinki released their first album Fingers Crossed in the states and a lot has changed since then. Not only has the band played with the likes of David Byrne, Belle and Sebastian, and Yo La Tengo; but they released one of the most undeniably great indie pop gems ever, In Case We Die. Where Fingers Crossed was subtle and sw...

This makes me oh so very happy, and oh so sad to think that I missed them when they came into town.

I know, I know, the "rapping" in the middle is a little corny, but I love the sound.

I should have written this post about a month ago, really. But, the album I'm about to talk about has just recently grown on me. Said work of songs is that of Architecture in Helsinki and their most recent work, Places Like This. The songs that stick out most are "Hold Music" and "Heart It Races", both of which are more or less singles. Each song is catchy in its own right, and good to cheer yo...

Architecture In Helsinki have new artwork and a new video for "Heart It Races" on their my$pace. This is the same song that i mentioned earlier as the song that DJ/Rupture remixed and added vocals by Mr. Lee G. Check out the cool artwork :The video is even zanier - it starts out like a documentary on a day-glo tribe of riverside people (think Outkast's freaky black light video) then takes of...

I'm posting this because it's in my head and I don't mind it being in my head - and that's odd because recently it was played quite frequently at our house and by rights we should be tired of it but we're not. Last year the kids and I got inspired when we went to a local Big Lip Sync contest and they decided to enter this year, and did some excellent choreography to Heart It Races, and practic...

Two nights ago Architecture In Helsinki came to Santa Cruz. They played at a teeny tiny venue called the Rio, which is more of a movie theater than anything else, but despite the awkward arrangement I found them to be much more entertaining in concert than on any CD. These guys had personality. They had originality. They had stage presence. At one point at least twenty fans (including one in a ...
