S4,E15: 8/20/07 (Junior Senior, Justice, Page France, Bodies of Water, The Leaning Towers)

First up, Danish disco-revivalists Junior Senior have just released a new (well, in the United States anyway) album which is very listenable called Hey Hey My My Yo Yo (iTunes, Amazon), from which we heard "Take My Time" and a little bit of "Dance, Chance, Romance" just to illustrate how much I think it sounds like "Feelgood By Numbers" by The Go! Team. A second dance-party worthy track followed by France's The Faint-esque electronica act Justice who did "Phantom" from their recent debut album Cross (iTunes, Amazon, SoundFix). Next we heard two songs from the new album ...and the Family Telephone (iTunes, eMusic, Amazon) from Maryland's Page France. First "Hat and Rabbit" then "Here's a Telephone" both of which have lyrics about 'blue eyes' and 'rabbits' as do many other songs on the record. Then two songs from the debut album Ears Will Pop & Eyes Will Blink (iTunes, eMusic) from Los Angeles one-of-a-kind band Bodies of Water, first "Our Friends Appear Like the Dawn" then "I Heard it Sound". And finally, Portland's generous indie pop act The Leaning Towers did their fantastic "Rich Enough to Ignore It" from their The Eleventh Hole EP (download for free here).
