The Academy Is… Throwing A House Party In The ’70s


I’ve spent the last five minutes trying to figure out how, exactly, one would make the name of the bubblegum-punk outfit The Academy Is… into a possessive. “The Academy Is’…”? “The Academy Is…’s”? “The Academy Is…s’”? It’s starting to break my brain a little bit, which is why I’m glad that their video for “Summer Hair = Forever Young” isn’t much of a mind-bender–just some dudes having a party, and a girl taking Polaroids (aww, nearly-obsolete technolgy!), and a pillow fight. I’ll just leave this on in the background while I consult the various style manuals laying around my house. [YouTube via AbsolutePunk]

    Great timing for this song, actually, those last two weeks before school starts and one gets a bit wistful for summer…

    In my day, it was all Sigue Sigue Sputnik “Flaunt It.”
