On March 15, there’s a McSweeney’s benefit in NYC with proceeds going toward 826NYC and 826LA. The featured band for the event, Internet, is composed of Dan Boeckner and Hadji Bakara of Wolf Parade, Nick Diamonds of Islands, and Syd Butler of Les Savy Fav. If you’re in New York over spring break for any reason (in my case, I live there), this might be worth checking out. Tickets are $21 ($26 day of show).

While I’m not a huge fan, I know some of you are probably into them to some extent.
Today, it was announced that their second album, Favourite Worst Nightmare, will be released on April 23 in the UK. The first single will be “Brianstorm,” which will come out a week earlier. There’s no word yet on a US release.
