The Dø - Despair, Hangover & Ecstasy is a fun video from this Finnish-French outfit that evokes angsty 80s movie mandancing around a passenger jet. Here's some more of the The Dø

Ok, so I've always tried not to say the name of the band, which I waffle between "dew" and "doe," but either way I've totally loved them since their first album.

This was one of my favourite songs last year.

Love The Dø, however you say it.

Stumbled across them a few years back on KALX. It is hard to believe that both of these songs are by the same person, I like them both.

I thought about that too, but then I thought that any machine that's that expensive and finely tuned should also have perfect bearings.

Live on KEXP. As good as you'd expect.
