You can all forgive my talent for feeling deeply philosophical one minute and then bubbly and irreverent the next, because I have discovered the joy that is Alphabeat. Yes, even the name conjures up images of 80's geekdom, which really nails it on the head, because Alphabeat is a singing dancing Danish popalicious band that smacks of totally uncool fun. Here's a review from popjustice about their newest single "Fantastic Six" which may make you snort:
"It sounds like an Arcade Fire track if Arcade Fire were barely out of their teens, had grown up in Copenhagen and sounded more like Junior Senior. It basically sounds nothing like an Arcade Fire track."
I've not heard any Arcade Fire, but that is beside the point. Personally I would recommend listening to "Fascination" which just makes you want to jump up and down smiling inanely and waving your arms like an ape. Go Alphabeat for bringing out the life-loving neanderthal in us all.
