Asteroid Galaxy Tour

This Danish band is just the bomb. A band definitely to keep an eye on. Already celebrating their popularity across the borders in the US (getting played and praised on the smash series "Gossip Girl") and Australia (on the air charts) DK just started noticing them. Although their single "Around the Bend" is good, I also really like "The Sun Ain't Shining No more". Below you can enjoy both.

Lampshade vs. Nikolaj Nørlund

When it comes to covers I can't get enough. Eg. I love the new compilation: "Hollywood mon amour" which includes great covers of cool moviesongs from the 80's. Also I love the new Seal album which is filled with grand soul and all covers. Some times it just work. I Dk a new compilation just came out containing great dane classics called "Kender du det" - referring to Søren Kragh Jacobsens great classic. On the album is also a new version of "Den støjende tid" which was made by what I think is a genius, the great Nikolaj Nørlund. It is a very melancholic song based one of poems by the late popular cult author Michael Strunge. The new song is very different, not as melancholic but I would still like to draw attention to it. I think Lampshade did a great job, but I think I would miss the melancholic tone from Nikolaj Nørlund. What do you think?

Little Joy

Little Joy is an american rock band, and it is a sideproject from The Strokes' Fabrizio Moretti. They just came out with their debut album "Little joy". The tunes are really cool and reminds me a lot of the Bees. Also it has a sixty rock sound to it. Very cool. View their myspace page here to listen:
