[DudeAsInCool]

Arcade Fire's Will Butler recently revealed that his debut solo album, Policy, would arrive on March 10 via Merge. (It's also out March 16 in Europe). Today, the album has a goofy new trailer—watch it below. The song "Take My Side" is set to premiere later today on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show.

A press release notes that the album was recorded in Jimi Hendrix's old living room at Electric Lady Studios in New York. It was made in two weeks and features Arcade Fire's Jeremy Gara on drums. Aside from a few supporting players on woodwinds and backing vocals, everything else was recorded by Butler.

It also reads: "Policy is American music—in the tradition of the Violent Femmes, the Breeders, the Modern Lovers, Bob Dylan, Smokey Robinson, the Magnetic Fields, Ghostface Killah. And John Lennon (which counts)."
