10. The Floor Is Made of Lava - No Fruit All Juice
This oh-so-hyped trio from Copenhagen, Denmark relies on energetic indiepop with the basic elements that follow. Taking their name from an episode of The Simpsons and naming their songs "Told her I'm from Compton" and "Tango in my tummy", it's obvious that they're not taking themselves too seriously. And that itself is liberating, but you got to have the music to back it up. Where bands like Quit Your Dayjob go full circle in their craziness, it feels like "All juice no fruit" is a manufactured article. The band is apparently the next huge, up-and-coming act in Denmark and I can see why. This easygoing pop music is not for the brain, but for your feet and they're great for the indie dance floor. Sort of like a Danish b-version of Franz Ferdinand, and that's a compliment. "Sucker love" and "IKEA did a job on you" are nice, poppy numbers, but you need more than handful semi-hits to convince me. This is not for me. At all. - Jonas Appelqvist
Danish postpunk act The Floor Is Made Of Lava will release their debut album "All juice, no fruit" on October 15. Look for Danish tourdates beginning in late September along with Germany in November.
Tabu has signed The Floor Is Made Of Lava, a Danish band who hounded many a music blogger recently with what I thought were terrible songs with even worse lyrics. Guess not everyone agrees with my taste.
