Randomly, last night during a commercial break of The Real Housewives of New York (wish I could quit you, Jill Zarin!), my friends and I started talking about Phoenix (if you've never heard of them, think Muse meets TV On The Radio meets Air) and wondering if the French pop-rock band was even still together. It had, after all, been a MINUTE AND A HALF since Phoenix dropped ANYTHING new, and I've been listening to half of Alphabetical and another half of It's Never Been Like That since 2006.

Well, zut alors, y'all! Phoenix just released their new single, "1901" this week, and it's a major rager from their upcoming album, Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, out May 25, 2009. I will now delude myself into thinking that I can simply say the name of an artist, and wake up the next day to discover they've got a new track out! Are you reading this, Deee-Lite?

When you're finished up with your birthday cards for Kathy Griffin and Diddy (oh, you didn't know it's Diddy's birthday today? I'm sure he'll remind you via some swaggertastic, anti-bitch-assedness viral video), don't forget to go do your civic duty! And no, I'm not referring to bangin' the booty, in the immortal words of Booty Juice.

Take a cue from the late, great Deee-Lite -- seen here in a 1992 MTV Rock the Vote spot -- and vote, baby, vote!
