It was directed by Scottish filmmaker Ashley Waddle and will have the Yeah Yeah Yeah's introduce its premiere on MTV2's "Subterranean" on March 5, 2006. Arab Strap's new record The Last Romance was just released on February 21, on Transdreamer Records (http://www.transdreamer.com).

this is awesome, although i haven't heard the new record yet. i thought they could have had a minor hit with "the shy retirer" though.
