Daisy Lowe Makes Film Debut  July 30, 2009

Lets play "spot the reference" shall we? OK here we go. British band Noah And The Whale, who derive their name from an amalgam of filmmaker Noah Baumbach and his breakout work "The Squid And The Whale" have made a film titled "The First Days of Spring" which besides being a Salvador Dali painting is also the name of their forthcoming album. Sweet, hear that whooshing? That's the sound of your brain decompressing.

Charlie Fink the band's lead vocalist and guitarist wrote and directed the film with the intention that it run for the entirety of the new album. We're unsure whether this means it's an extended film clip but the presence of fireworks, cigarettes, fixies, typewriters, nature shots and an indie soundtrack leads us to believe that whether it's a film with dialogue or not - the plaid set will watch in hordes. Daisy Lowe's film debut shouldn't hurt the cause either.
