The website for the new Apples in Stereo record, Travellers in Space and Time, has debuted, and it’s named after an Elf Power song: Step Through the Portal. As a precursor to the debut of the album’s first video, “Dance Floor,” Robert Schneider and Elijah Wood have put together this, well, Robert calls it a “local public television science show from an alternate universe.” Enjoy:
If you’re one of the first 250 people to pre-order Travellers in Space and Time from Yep Roc Records, you’ll receive a bonus 12″, Future Vintage, featuring covers of Apples songs by six different bands, including (coincidence?) Elf Power.
Side A:
1. “Ruby” by Ted Leo
2. “Benefits of Lying (w/ Your Friend)” by Bad Veins
3. “The Rainbow” by Throw Me The Statue
Side B:
1. “Ruby” by The Generationals
2. “Same Old Drag” by Maps and Atlases
3. “Strawberryfire” by Elf Power

This reminds me very much of Look Around You
I named the first post of my blog “Step through the portal” too, the post was a picture i made for an Apples In Stereo contest (and from what i remember the contest was about their website), funny
