What a week it’s been, we got to interview Devo! It doesn’t get much better than that, but The Black Lips were a close second. We also had exclusive songs from Kenan Bell, The pAper chAse and a full album stream from I Was A King. Not to mention the Yeah Yeah Yeahs playing Saturday Night Live the week after Phoenix, the news that David Byrne would be playing Prospect Park, but a bigger show might be on it’s way there. We also witnessed not one, but two U.S. debuts, a pretty awesome Man Man video and heard Justice’s remix of U2. Here is the full Tripwire week in review.
