White Lies Releases First Video for Unfinished Business

Soak in the glorious sadness and big noise power of White Lies debut video for the single "Unfinished Business" before the NME over-hypes them. If you think it's a little too-Joy Division in the beginning, give it a little time and wait that booming chorus.

The lads just kicked off a U.K. tour, as part of the NME New Noise Tour. They'll be joined by Crystal Castles, Team Waterpolo and Friendly Fires. After that's they'll do the festival circuit for the summer, then a headlining tour of their own in the U.K. They'll stop in the U.S. in August for Lollapaloosa, and one can hope they'll stop in New York before or after that.
