Watch: Arcade Fire Premiere "We Exist" New Video, Starring Andrew Garfield

Canadian indie band Arcade Fire have released an official video for their latest single "We Exist", off their fourth studio album 'Reflektor', which came out last year via Merge Records. 

The song is part of our current playlist, and according to Win Butler it is "about a gay kid talking to his dad" and coming out to his straight father. He has introduced the song onstage (including at the band's Coachella set last month, during which the video's live footage was shot) by saying, "The right to marry anyone you want is a human rights issue."

So the clip is a perfect match for the song lyrics and features actor Andrew Garfield, yes Spider-Man himself, playing the role of a gay man struggling with his identity. 

Watch it below.

Stevie Nicks Announces New Album '24 Karat Gold'

Despite working on a new record with Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Nicks has announced the release of a new solo album, tentatively titled 24 Karat Gold: Songs From the Vault.

The LP will feature reworked versions of previously unreleased material. All of the tracks that she has worked on over the years will be especially re-recorded or the new release, with Nicks working with Dave Stewart and Waddy Watchel on production duties.

Nicks says that she just recorded "18 tracks in three weeks" for the album -- saying that it's the "fastest I have ever recorded."

"We found all the songs that, somehow, were taken from my house or picked up or loaned out or whatever… and we went to Nashville (and recorded them). So they’re like all starting from like 1969 maybe? I call them my 24 Karat Gold songs." She told the Associated Press.  

The album is tentatively scheduled to arrive in October via Reprise/Warner Bros. Listen to the 24 Karat Gold bootleg by Stevie Nicks below.
