Since a London amigo recommended “The Asteroids Galaxy Tour” months ago, via a grimy, eccentric jazzy “Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In”-esque Youtube video, I've been waiting with 'bated breath and whisp’ring humbleness' for them to come to the States....(sorry Shakespeare, but you described it better than I ever could).

The souls behind The Asteroids Galaxy Tour are Lars and Mette, Copenhagen-based buds. Be it the stars, moon or the fates, their career has taken off a bit like an asteroid of sorts; when Amy Winehouse (while still lucid) played in the Danish capital, she insisted they open for her, which led a swell manager phoning them up and signing them, which led to an i-pod commerical, which led to them bursting onto various stages around the world- showing off their psychedelic-pop (and Mette's why-shower?-flower-power head-mop and pixie voice). Maybe not in that order.

Well- their asteroid is about to crash down on you; turn up your speakers to "The Sun Ain't Shining No More" and try to pick out allusions to B-52s, a bit psychedelic, and a lot of 60's soul.

Sounds Like: B- 52s, Aquarius/Hair, Amy Winehouse, Marvin Gaye
