Watch the video for The B-52's single, Funplex. Funplex, is the band's first
studio album in 16 years.

Recorded in their native Athens, GA and with all 11 songs written by Kate Pierson, Fred Schneider, Keith Strickland and Cindy Wilson, 'Funplex' finds the band in vigorous, forward stance, while staying true to the party-rock style that influenced such current bands as LCD Soundsystem, Interpol and The Scissor Sisters. Guitarist Keith Strickland explains, "It's loud, sexy rock and roll for your pleasure zones, with the beat pumped up to hot pink."

The B-52s have announced a short UK tour, they will keep the party going on for fans in the UK, starting with a date in Glasgow on July 21st.
