Junior Senior (Finally) Issue Sophomore Set in U.S.

So much time has passed, now they're both Seniors
Junior Senior (Finally) Issue Sophomore Set in U.S. Much has changed in the astonishingly long while since we posted our initial review of Junior Senior's Hey Hey My My Yo Yo, the foot-moving Danish dance duo's sophomore album: tunes from the disc have been featured in PSP games and on "Ugly Betty", Le Tigre-- who guest on the disc-- have effectively split up, and a lot of the group's onetime Stateside fans have all but forgotten about their love for "Move Your Feet", their once-ubiquitous single.

But, North America, prepare to fall in love with Junior Senior all over again August 14, when Rykodisc issues Hey Hey My My Yo Yo on this continent for the first time ever, a mere two years after its initial issue (on Crunchy Frog).

The disc, as you'll recall, features guest spots from a couple B-52s, Spooner Oldham, and the aforementioned Le Tigre, and will come packaged with a DVD featuring "exclusive footage." Will the Junior Senior fire catch on again? Your move, North America.

Junior Senior have a single show on the bubble, at Belfort, France's Eurockéennes festival on June 29. They hope to hit the States this fall.
