The first time I saw a picture of the The Asteroids Galaxy Tour, I thought, these are two very beautiful people. Their EP, Around The Bend comes out today, and you should get some "hot hot love from around the bend." Judging from their lyrics, they're from the UK. By the way, isn't "around the bend" something like a 60's term? No one uses that expression anymore, do they? Don't we mean 'around the corner'? Well, as it turns out this duo is from Denmark.
This is a very new band with Lars Iversen and Mette Lindberg; and apparently they are known for their debut single "The Sun Ain't Shining No More." This song is a bonus b-side on their Around the Bend EP; in fact there are two "Sun" songs (one a remix by Bruce Aishe, which is much more dancetastic and I didn't like it as much as the original mix). I have to say I was really blown away the first time I heard the "Sun" song - it is very much like 60's girl pop, but kind of having a eurodance background track.
Recently, their song "Around the Bend" is featured in advertisements for the new iPod Touch. Listen to the song and you can see why they are the hot and the happening. You have to love the catchy trumpets and horns, right?
Despite calling themselves 'tour', they are currently not on tour - but expect them to be when they will be promoting their debut full-length album in early 2009. For right now, you should enjoy the Around The Bend EP.
PS, I think the EP is a digital release-only on iTunes.
