Don't know how big they are, four years ago they did their debut albums UNITED, wich had big hits like If I Ever Feel Better, Funky Square-Dance (vocoded country, hip hop bridge, fade to 80's metal) and Too Young (soundtrack on Lost in Translation, at the japanese party).
Now they did their always-difficult-second-album, Alphabetical, and it's excellent.
Highligths: Everything Is Everything (French response to "Hey Ya"), Run,Run,Run (folk meets HipHop meets 80's), Love For Granted and Victim Of The Crime.
I only listen to that for one week (and Smile 2004 bootleg!)

They're great, but their big brothers Air are better.

Smile is on soulseek (London show).
Phoenix are way more cooler than Air, they do more classic songs.
I'm a Tahiti 80 fan, they're great live. |

yeah, i liked them when i saw them! they gave me a signed copy of their last album, says something like "thanks for lending us your guitar, see you soon" - i leant them my acoustic guitar so they could do a radio session when my dad promoted them... cool guys.
