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.
