April Fool’s Rock Hoaxes: Bieber or Die, Coldplay Perfume and More

April 1st is a rough day to be in the news business. Rolling Stone could get a press release that says Dr. Dre’s Detox finally has a release date or Talking Heads are reuniting or the Beatles are coming to iTunes, and we wouldn’t believe it since so many folks use April Fool’s Day to engage in shenanigans with their fans.

Breaking: Dirty Projectors

Who: Dirty Projectors, a Brooklyn five-piece led by mastermind David Longstreth whose unusual blend of blues and punk has captured the attention of David Byrne, Björk and TV on the Radio.
