Phoenix on Tuesday premiered the video for “Trying to Be Cool,” the second single from their latest album, Bankrupt!, out now on Loyaute/Glassnote Records.

The duo went to Best Buy overnight and Drake bought up the store's stock of Cole's new record.
Following a successful stint earlier this month at New York’s Governors Ball and a tour with Bloc Party, Vancouver, B.C.’s electro-dance outfit Bear Mountain has unveiled a captivating set of visuals for their new single “Faded.” The clip, which was directed by Matt Leaf, stars Mackenzie Grey as the thoroughly creepy ringleader in a boxing ring.
