My musician friends who are ex-film school students are better qualified to weigh on the Toby Halbrooks/David Lowery video for “I L U,” but suffice to say that, for me, School of Seven Bells’ lilting vocals do just fine when it comes to ripping my heart out. The band, now absent half of its twin sirens (Claudia Deheza departed for personal reasons in October but no replacement has been announced yet), just outlined a big 2001 tour with Interpol that includes dates in La Jolla and Santa Barbara but none in L.A. Hmm … and the tour has open dates Feb. 1 and 3. Stay tuned.
