Date: 2009-07-22 07:11 pm (UTC)I made fun of the Glasvegas album all the way up until I realized their ridiculousness was a point in their favour - art naïf, basically. Also I have drunk their beer and they're really nice people.
I expect to like the Florence, Bat for Lashes, and La Roux albums about equally, i.e. some songs but not others. Haven't gotten around to the legwork. Have heard all of the Kasabian and like it about as much as their first one, which I listened to a lot at the time and assumed was a weird taste fluke/lapse, but... apparently not? XD
Most interesting to me at the moment: the Lisa Hannigan
