New Tilly and the Wall!

So, what does everyone think? I kind of hated the song the first time, but it's grown on me more with each subsequent viewing. It's cute and catchy and simple, kind of repetitive, but I guess it's not even going to be on the new album (due out this summer) anyway, so I think it's probably just a little one-off electropop number that they released for the hell of it. And the video is way trippy and probably the most blatantly low-budget cheese I've seen since Tori's "Big Wheel", but it's strangely addicting. Plus, it just makes me sick how insanely gorgeous and fierce Miss Kianna Alarid is; I love that girl. Anyway, despite the general oddness of using this song to promote an album it's not even on and the oddness of the song itself, it's at least succeeded in making me even more interested to see the direction they're heading in with their third full-length release.

"Beat Control" will be available as a 7" single on Tilly's upcoming tour and as a digital download single, along with another new track and a remix, on March 4th through Team Love records. More information can be found here.

And in case you missed it when I first posted it at the beginning of the year, here is a potential track for the new album that they were playing live not too long ago. It's a bit more aggressive and punk-influenced than most of their other material, but is still catchy as sin and features such classic Tilly lines as "We're gonna burn this motherfucking party down." Completely awesome all the way around.
