No matter its form, remixed or as Datarock intended, "Give It Up" is at least partially about hooking you up with an enema. It was also our first listen to the scarlet-clad Norwegians' forthcoming sophomore collection Red, on which they only used equipment made prior to 1983 and tried tapping into Fela Kuti, Afrika Bambaataa and Kraftwerk. The next single "The Pretender" sounds more like their old inspiration Devo swiveling into an anthemic disco and "Song Of Myself" kick (with a little of Duran Duran's "Rio" at the start), but who's keeping track(suit)?

In "The Pretender," the scarlet-clad Norwegian duo Datarock offer up a Devo-esque anthem (after a "Rio" kick-off) that, lyrically, more or less wants us to know that they are everything to all people -- a believer, an achiever, a boy, a girl, South American, North Korean, etc. But it's "The Pretender" telling us about the shape-shifting.
