The Asteroids Galaxy Tour 's new video for "Major" is a little bit of a throwback. First, there's the archival footage. Then there's the fashion! The former is not something to write home about--we've all seen protest footage before, though it's always important to be reminded. But the fashion? Well, it's pretty awesome (and much more pleasant to think about). Check out the video above.

"Copenhagen's answer to the B-52s" –The New Yorker "The band's hip-swiveling sound is sheer dance-around-the-room fun" –Marie Claire Copenhagen's The Asteroids Galaxy Tour released their sophomore record, Out Of Frequency, earlier this year on BMG Rights. Brandishing a signature sound that infuses pop with psychedelia, funk, soul, and jazz, The Asteroids Galaxy Tour never fail to produce addictive tunes full of imagination. Having won over audiences globally, the band is now blasting into space with their new video for retro-funkadelic album track "Major," a song which will seduce you with its 70s blaxploitation-esque horn [...]

A volte il raggiungimento della fama passa attraverso strade strane. Gli Asteroids Galaxy Tour erano un gruppo danese completamente ignoto anche al mainstream internazionale, con un album inciso nel 2009 e passato inosservato in patria e che aveva raccolto le briciole altrove. Tutto questo fino all'anno scorso. Quando una nota marca di birra decide che " Golden Age" , una delle tracce dell'album "Fruit" debba fare parte della loro campagna pubblicitaria ( ne parlammo qu i). Così è arrivato il successo. Ospitate televisive, il rilancio di una canzone che è anche l'unica ad aver [...]

The Asteroids Galaxy Tour is no small game in the music scene. Played in numerous commercials and parties (at least the ones I've been in), there is no doubt that they have caught the attention of many. One such example is the band Vacationer , who remixed one "Major", of off The Asteroids Galaxy Tour's newest album Out of Frequency. For those who don't know Vacationer, they have a poppy, feel-good tone in a majority of their songs and are fit for a good day out in the sun, with a good beat of course. Lucky [...]

Filed under: News , RPM , New Music , New Releases Sigurd Grünberger Denmark's the Asteroids Galaxy Tour have already toured Earth, conquered dance clubs and blown up commercials. The Copenhagen band has had two songs from their debut album featured in iPod and Budweiser ads.

The follow-up to their debut has the Asteroids Galaxy Tour creating one of the most stylistically impressive albums of the year; unfortunately, in terms of pure musical output, it falls short. For the last decade, artists such as Robyn, Lykke Li, Annie and Fever Ray have redefined Scandinavian pop music. While all have different voices, they collectively have built on the proud pop traditions of Scandinavia that started with ABBA. Each of these artists has mainly incorporated electronic influences into her pop music. All have had sugary sweet pop hooks and melodies. Yet, none has taken this motif and [...]

There's just not much love left in the world, particularly for Cherub . They just hate against those rich hoes and those high class folks who just made it too quick (or stepped in a pile). You all know what I'm talking about. Champagne and cocaine is apparently the fix for that predicament. Don't try this at home! But seriously, we've got a slew of good mixes this week on our Weekly Download with a Gorillaz cover by Animalweapon and a Lana Del Rey cover of "Video Games" that might actually [...]

Baltimore based "chilling out" masters Vacationer are having a big 2012 already. The band, who makes music that makes you feel like you're on a vacation (pun intended) just released the first single, "Gone", from their LP of the same name on January 31st. The new album was produced by members of NYC "chilling out" faves Body Language and will be released March 20th via Downtown Records. The band is currently in the middle of a tour with Denmark's Asteroids Galaxy Tour through February and then will be supporting the Naked and Famous on [...]

The dress code Tuesday night at Lincoln Hall was glitter. Although I, and most of my fellow concert-goers, didn't get the memo until too late, each of the band members of The Asteroids Galaxy Tour rocked a glittery accoutrement: the horn section sported glittery bowties, the percussion section rocked a glitter lined denim jacket, the guitarist wore a glittery vest and the lead singer jammed in a glittery tunic and sparkly jeggings. The band shone. Literally and figuratively. It didn't hurt that the evening was peppered with unexpected and awesome instruments which included a saxophone, a [...]

The Asteroid's Galaxy Tour (once again) rocked their performance in NYC and played at the Irving Plaza. It wasn't too long ago where they played at the Bowery Ballroom. There were several similarities within the shows: the size of the venue, the wooden floors were shaking from the uncontrollable movements of the crowd, Mette was stunning as always, and their standout jazzy tones captured the audience's heart. The one major difference was that they just released their new album, Out of Frequency, that day. We were all in for one big surprise…. They opened with a [...]
