Picking up the cudgel of dance music with a mish-mash of influences pioneered by '90s acts like Deee-Lite and perpetuated by contemporaries the Cooler Kids, Junior Senior add some flash to an otherwise colorless Summer 2003. With their debut D-D-DON'T STOP THE BEAT, this Danish duo packs a half-hour's worth of kitschy New Wave synthesizers, flashy surf guitar, and thumping funk beats into delightful pieces of ear candy like the Eurodisco "Move Your Feet," psychedelic nugget "Boy Meets Girl," and the garage-rock gender-bending anthem "Chicks and Dicks." Throughout these 13 songs, the tempo borders on the amphetamine-fueled, with chugging guitar and double-time beats framing the simple yet infectious "Good Girl, Bad Boy," White Stripes-like "White Trash," and aptly titled "Rhythm Bandits." About the only time the pace somewhat slows down is on "Shake Me Baby," with its neat mix of subtle string arrangements and mutated Motown beat, and the double-entendre-laced "Shake Your Coconuts" with its hazy overtones of Urban Dance Squad. Despite having more musical personalities than Sybil, Junior Senior's debut possesses equal doses of cheekiness and an unstoppable joie de vivre.

| | Walkmen Bows And Arrows CD (2004)
Britten: War Requiem, Sinfonia Da Requiem, Etc / Hickox
$11.79 
A rock revivalist opus similar to those by the Strokes and Stripes, the Walkmen's sophomore effort is a genuine rock "album" in the traditional sense: each song is unique to the others and it all fits together as a cohesive work of art. Instant classics include "The Rat," with vocalist Hamilton Leithauser screaming out with so much lonely rage that two tracks later (on "Little House of Savages"), the shredded walls of his throat fall away like rocket boosters fueled by Matt Barrick's long, flying drum-fill of a beat.
Mellower tracks "138th Street" and "Hang on Siobhan" provide ample evidence that these boys are long-lost heirs to the Mott the Hoople / BLONDE ON BLONDE-era Dylan throne. U2 comparisons are also borne out with the riffs of guitarist Paul Maroon and the thudding drums of Barrick. Add some Yo La Tengo-esque organ and it's like seeing a lost love in the face of a first date--exciting and new, yet warmly familiar.
Recorded at Marcata, The Magic Shop, New York, New York; Sweet Tea, Oxford, Mississippi; Easley-McCain Studios, Memphis, Tennessee in 2003.
The Walkmen: Hamilton Leithauser (vocals, guitar); Paul Maroon (guitar, piano); Walter Martin (organ); Pete Bauser (bass); Matt Barrick (drums).
