Ratatat really wants you to listen to their album

By Alex Young on July 9th, 2008

In case you still haven’t had a chance to listen to Ratatat’s third studio album, cleverly titled LP3, the New York City music duo is providing plenty of opportunities to check out the electro-filled styles and sounds of the recent release.

For example, don’t believe our glowing recommendation? You can always give your ears a listen via the conveniently placed full album stream on Spinner.

But what if you’re the type of person who needs to see the band live before you can make a final opinion, you ask? Well, you can join others at one of the band’s many upcoming North American tour dates, where they will surely perform many of LP3’s 13 tracks.

Don’t want to leave our lovely blog? Completely understandable. Well, we have a taste of “Mirando”, the album’s first single, below…
