Datarock Riff on A-ha and Devo at the Interface

Norwegian electronic dance duo Datarock -- Fredrik Saroea and Ketil Mosnes -- and their bright red tracktsuits recently stopped by the Interface, asserting first and foremost that the band is a combination of "the best parts of A-ha and the worst parts of Devo."

Amidst a bevy of jokes and jabs, the duo shoveled out performances of 'Fa Fa Fa' and 'Computer Camp Love' (replete with 'Grease' references), among others, off their self-titled album.

Catch all of the performances and the interview -- which finds Saroea and Mosnes discussing just what those tracksuits are made of (hint: it ain't all cotton), what influence 'ET' had on their career and why they make folks faint -- after the jump.
