2012, Chrysalis
As their name might imply, The Asteroids Galaxy Tour are somehow less of a band than they are a many-legged, ever-evolving, constantly moving party machine. Since beaming into popular consciousness back in 2008 with Fruit - a debut album responsible for producing the unstoppable, globally ubiquitous "Around the Bend" and "The Golden Age" singles – the band have toured the world, proving themselves to be one of the most unorthodox and uniquely original live bands on the planted. Unlike so many of their Scandinavian contemporaries – bands that often attack pop music with an almost surgical precision – The Asteroids Galaxy Tour's vision of pop music is a much more kaleidoscopic, free-wheeling affair – a symphonic collision of big pop hooks, soaring horn sections, retro-synth flourished, and epic beats. Inspired by everything from Blaxploitation soundtracks to Primal Scream to old reruns of Dynasty, The Asteroids Galaxy Tour evolved from a bedroom recording project between friends into a psychedelic big band of the future.
