Okay, so it's not like The Better Half discovered Glasvegas...my colleague "Bad" Andy Abdelmalek alerted me about them a while back, and iTunes had them as a Free Download a little before that.
However, it was The Better Half who told me that they were going to be at the Troubadour in January 2009 (get your tickets now!) the other day, which made me check out their song clips on Myspace, which made me finally listen to the free iTunes download...
...and I haven't stopped since.
Catchy melodies, soaring guitar riffs, pounding drums, cute Scottish accents, cheesy and inane lyrics...it's perfect!
Perfect!
Trust me, this is the kind of stuff that lives on in movie trailers for years to come (often accompanying shots of people looking skywards, their arms open wide).
"Geraldine" is now on an infinite loop on my iPod Shuffle (1GB, First Gen).

Soooooo good...
PS. Okay, I mis-wrote, I don't love the band more than I love The Better Half, I just love them more than she loves them...umm...okay?
