Glass Candy Are Literally Very Good
Everytime I’m in Tesco’s I have a good flick through NME magazine to see if they’ve written anything that can get me all irritated. There article on bands that make America “cool again” was filled with 23 pretty shite bands (the exceptions being Black Kids and…) but they redeemed themselves by putting GLASS CANDY in third place. I didn’t know anyone even liked Glass Candy except me — there album doesn’t even have any customer reviews on iTunes.
Anyway the point is Glass Candy’s annoyingly titled B/E/A/T/B/O/X is an amazing, amazing album and you should listen to it.

1. Vampire Weekend
2. Lil Wayne
3. Glass Candy
4. Kings of Leon
