The new YYY music video for "Zero" premiers today on AOL. Karen tells Spinner,"Zero''s sentiment is to revel in being you -- you're a zero so screw it! It's the underdogs, the rebels, the outsiders that have always captivated me growing up so I decided why not flaunt that side of myself in the video."
According to their blog, It's Blitz will be released digitally March 9th and will be released in the U.S on March 31st.
They will be headlining Coachella on Sunday April 19th in Indio, California along with The Cure and My Bloody Valentine.

The former Beatle is a huge get for this year's festival, but at 66 he doesn't quite fit the demographic.
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival got famous by presenting the sounds of today and tomorrow. But this year California's most celebrated live-music event is gambling on Paul McCartney and the music of "Yesterday."
Booking the former Beatle, who is listed in the record books as the most successful musician in pop history, would be the safest choice imaginable for most music festivals.
But the internationally respected Coachella festival, which is set for April 17-19, has been pulling in crowds of more than 140,000 fans by taking an edgier path with alt-rock heroes you would hear on a college town's pirate radio station.
Presented with a chance to tap into music history and veteran star power, the promoters have signed the 66-year-old icon, who personifies the mature pop mainstream. The move could help the festival compete amid a grim economy and a host of imitators that have sprung up across the country; the news of McCartney's presence -- for better or worse -- instantly will make Coachella a hot topic with music fans nationwide who have been anxiously awaiting the list of this year's headliners.
What remains to be seen is whether the choice will cost the festival credibility with its core clientele: young fans who are more likely to listen to the White Stripes than the "White Album" and who are far more familiar with Rage Against the Machine than "Band on the Run."
From Paris, McCartney sent word Thursday that he was thrilled with the idea of playing to a new crowd. "I have heard that Coachella is one of the greatest festivals in the world," he said in a statement sent to The Times. "I'm really excited to get out there and rock!"

Seeing My Bloody Valentine at the All Tomorrow's Parties festival this past weekend, made the all exhaustion and discomfort of the event worthwhile. Taking many cuts off their consummate 1991 album Loveless, the band got everything right: the pitch-bent guitars, the dreamy vocal effects, those heartbreaking hooks, that brutally loud mix. As the band's first U.S. performance in 16 years, the thing had been hyped to hell, but Kevin Shields and company delivered the crowning performance of the festival with their signature "no big deal" composure......Hit the link above for full festival review (MBV also curated the event).

Further tickets for My Bloody Valentine's reunion shows next summer have been made available this morning after the original allocation for shows in London, Manchester and Glasgow sold out in six minutes earlier today. Two extra dates at the London Roundhouse in June next year have been added. No further news has been announced about further shows in Britain or America.
The band who have not played live since 1992 and not recorded since 1991's Loveless are cited by many as the most influential group of the last few decades along with Sonic Youth and The Pixies.
I am now hustling for a ticket from a couple of sources after this shattering news broke yesterday. All we need now is Pavement to reform..Further tickets for My Bloody Valentine's reunion shows next summer have been... more
