Arcade Fire have released a short horror film called Festi; it 'aims to document the Montreal band's summer festival tour in 2011'. Sort of.
The National, Fleet Foxes and James Murphy also crop up. It's part music documentary, part schlocky B-movie.
It's directed by the enigmatic Noreen Bauble and sees the band and pals battle the curse of the 27 Club.
