Junior Senior (funk, house, indie, pop, rap)

i'm shit at describing music, but amazon hit the nail on the head:

Amazon.com
Described rather astutely as "The Laurel and Hardy of Danish electro pop," Junior Senior's "D-D-Don't Stop the Beat" is the coolest thing to come out of Denmark since Lego. Already huge in Scandinavia, the JS sound (think the Cramps, the B-52's, and Wham! in some gloriously incongruous pile-up) can't fail to paint a smile on the hardest of cynic's face. Fittingly their debut is full of perversely mad pop songs, referenced to the hilt and none too complex in production; for sheer goofy charm and jump-around madness, it's hard to beat. "Chicks and ****s," an ode to misguided sexual attention, rocks along to 60s beach guitar and surfin' harmonies, while "Move Your Feet" is the sound of Fatboy Slim body-popping to "Club Tropicana." At turns clever, irreverent, and maddeningly catchy, this is a record from Denmark that other countries will want to listen to. --Paul Tierney

I got this cd about the 2nd week it came out. "go junior, go senior" is ok. the rest sounds like a disco pep rally. the single they released was ok, however it is a bad representation for the rest of the cd. 5 out of 10.

ahr you ear unia seniar!
