As you may have noticed last week The Raveonettes’ Sune Rose Wagner and Sharin Foo recently sat down to record discussions of every song on their Vice Records debut, Lust Lust Lust. The duo touched on the writing, recording, pitfalls, and successes of each of the album’s twelve tracks. Last week, the mini-interviews were premiered throughout the blogosphere on Brooklyn Vegan, My Old Kentucky Blog, The Tripwire, Chromewaves, You Ain’t No Picasso, and The Music Slut. Currently they’re all available on You Tube.

In other news, the band recently stopped by the old office space where The Doors laid down LA Woman to record a new Rock Landmark feature for AOL Spinner. Check out the below link for a cover of “Riders on the Storm,” delivered from the same bathroom where Jim Morrison recorded all of the album’s vocals.

What the press is saying about Lust Lust Lust:
"...the pair makes smart, beguiling combinations Wagner's open homages to Buddy Holly, the Chiffons and Suicide; the death-march strum and chantlike singing in 'Expelled from Love"; the way Foo's harmony hangs, clean and poised, over the white-noise riot of "Blus"; the fast, urgent contradiction of the singing, keyboards and fist-fuls of guitar snarl in 'Dead Sound,' which is anything but. You always get beauty and the beastly, in equal measure - but never the same way twice." - ROLLING STONE, 4 STARS
“returns to the muddy, sordid sound the Raveonettes do best.” - Pitchfork
"a dirty-sweet testament to rock'n'roll's enduring ability to reflect desire in all its forms." - SPIN
"[Lust Lust Lust] is this place between sharp and smooth where the Raveonettes set up shop, and bring the best of themselves and their influences." - URB
"...they haven't lost their touch for crafting the kinds of songs that invite you into a black-glittered parrallel universe." - FILTER
"A masterpiece from start to finish." - SOMA
