One listen to the latest album from Bergen, Norway’s DataRock and you get it.. this is party music at its finest.. with retro dancefloor beats, shouty euro vocals, and that romanticization of 80′s American culture that fondles your inner childhood memories (think: revenge of the nerds, breakin’, rad). I think their song ‘Princess’ could have been the defacto party anthem of 2008. its the kind of song you put on when you want to get pumped up for a night full of jager bombs and sweaty dancefloors. Their live show promises to be highly entertaining… with the band sporting their signature matching red track suits, and a designated hype/dance man running around to whip up the crowd..[website: http://www.datarock.no/]
