Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix Remix Collection



Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix Remix Collection:

Glassnote Records is proud to announce the newest band to join the independent label's roster, Northern Ireland's Two Door Cinema Club. Releasing their debut overseas in February via Kitsuné/Co-Op, a North American release date for the album will be announced shortly.

On the cusp of releasing a 7" single of the song "I Can Talk" overseas, anticipation of the band's debut is building and the press is already raving. Of the song, NME gushes "It's herky, it's jerky, it's a mile-a-minute, it's everything we love about guitars and boys. Bloc Party might not want to stay on hiatus too long with them around," while AOL's Spinner UK adds "the fresh-faced trio's energetic indie pop adds flashes of African-styled guitar to the template, alongside jangly touch stones such as Death Cab For Cutie and Broken Social Scene." Stateside the band can be heard on the Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix Remix Collection, where they covered US label-mate PHOENIX's song "Lasso."

"Two Door Cinema Club is one of the most exciting young bands in the world," says Glassnote President Daniel Glass. "We cannot wait for their tour and record in 2010."

Prior to recording the album, Two Door Cinema Club were at a life-altering crossroad early in their career – go to university or lay it all on the line and follow their dreams. The trio, comprised of vocalist/guitarist Alex Trimble, bassist Kevin Baird and guitarist Sam Halliday, decided on the latter and took to Eastcote Studios in London to record with Elliott James (Bloc Party, Noah and The Whale).

Phillipe Zdar (Phoenix, Justice, Cassius) mixed a number of tracks on the 10-song debut, and the result is an infectious and sparkling rock record sprinkled with elements of indie-rock, pop, electro and Afro-beats.
