Iceage

This quartet of teenage punks from Copenhagen kickstarted a media frenzy when they embarked on their first US tour last year, and wiry (not to mention Wire-y) debut album New Brigade made it into many end-of-year Best Of lists. If there's nothing especially novel about their racket, Iceage have youthful intensity on their side... for the time being, at least. They're supported by the more eclectically post-punky Psysalia Psysalis Psyche.
