While on tour, the music group struck up a camaraderie with French indie pop device Phoenix, who enlisted drummer Hedlund to divide his time taken between the two rings, while guitarist Stenberg partnered up with Lykke Li. In ’09 2009, the group released their third studio room long participant, the critically acclaimed and politically billed Beneath the Pavement: The Seaside, which yielded a major-label bidding battle.
