After playing Irving Plaza summer dates, Australia’s Architecture in Helsinki will be “returning” to New York for two fall dates: October 11 at The Gramercy Theatre and October 12 at Studio B (most members seem to have settled down as Brooklyn residents anyway). La Blogotheque recently teamed up with the band for another accidental occupation of apartments in Paris, this time even borrowing electricity from one kitchen. On a previous occasion it was members of Holland’s Alamo Race Track performing from small balconies of a Parisian building. They, too, will be playing New York: this Thursday, August 2nd, as part of the showcase series hosted by NME at the Annex.

Photos and report from my lovely roommate, Lorelei:
Architecture in Helsinki had a full house – a full, mad house – of frenzied fans at the Irving Plaza on Friday night. The primordial feel of their latest single was pre-empted – before the band even appeared onstage – by the bellowing of witchdoctor weekenders* in the front row. So everyone seemed well and truly tribal by the time the boom dah-dee dah-dee dah dee boom of ‘Heart It Races’ emerged as if from a swamp that had been a thousand years in the making.
More after the jump.
