Who Exactly Are The Beatles? + Sleigh Bells on New Album

I saw a post on Stereogum the other day I thought was interesting. I Hate Young People hit the streets and asked a bunch of random teenagers to name a Beatles song, or just one of The Beatles. As you can probably guess, it was a fail of epic proportions. How sad is it that so many people know nothing about one of the bands that literally played a massive role in changing the face of music. I really don't understand. Watch the clip below; if anything, it's pretty entertaining. 

 

Treats was an insanely awesome, boombastic, noisy party-album that left your ears ringing for days. Well now, Brooklyn's dance-punk duo, Sleigh Bells are preparing to do it again. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Derek Miller and Alexis Krauss say that they are planning to record new material in June and have a new record out in early 2012. They promise stronger arrangements, more emotional content and tons of volume. So if your speakers didn't fuzz out completely from listening to their debut, you still have some time to grab a new set. Watch the interview below.
