Times New Viking have been around making garage rock for a few years now, but now they’ve made it to the big leagues; they are releasing their fifth album Dancer Equired on Merge (sorry Matador, you have to have a Grammy-winning album to make it to the “big leagues”).
Merge seem excited to have them on board and have helped them put together this little video of the threesome in their hometown of Columbus, OH just chilling, while clips from the upcoming album are played.

If that intrigues you then make sure you check out the video for the first single from the album, “No Room To Live.” Times New Viking are three art school graduates and it shows here, in hands down the best video of 2011 so far.
