The Charlatans' Tim Burgess has announced more interactive album listening parties, featuring New Order, Gene, Midlake, Metronomy, Hercules & Love Affair, and more.

The first-ever NYC edition of LA party Sex Cells went down at Brooklyn Bazaar this past weekend, and most excitingly, it featured Soft Cell singer Marc Almond performing Soft Cell material (and more)...

”This was just a fight with someone who fucked with us,” Ninja writes. ”Not a hate crime.”

The tour is a collaboration with LA party Sex Cells and also features Hercules & Love Affair.

”This song comes from such a heart-centered space and I wanted the video to embody that, so I took footage from my iPhone that I had taken of my friends, family, and lovers and found the moments I felt most moving,” said Doe.

Sharon sang "New York, I Love You But You're Bringing Me Down" backed by an orchestra for BBC's New York Prom, which also brought serpentwithfeet and Hercules and Love Affair to Royal Albert Hall.

Plus: Michael Nesmith, Hercules & Love Affair, Jawbreaker, Minus the Bear, Alice Bag, Michael Hurley, GWAR/Hatebreed, and more tour announcements.
