Okay, I downloaded a few songs off iTunes and I'm finding Geraldine to be very listenable and catchy. Love the thick Scottish accents. Definitely a period piece, but diggable for now.

Flowers and Football Tops is also an excellent track

Fantastic album ... already a contender for album of the year, seeing as how the official US release was in fact 2009![;)]

Yeah, came out in the UK in September I think. I concur that there is a certain "sameness" (i.e., key, chord changes) to the songs but I really love 'em.

Holy crap... I'm watching tonight's episode of Chuck with Scott Bacula as Chuck's supposed father. Chevy Chase as the arch enemy comes upon the scene, and the dad gives himself up if they'll let Chuck live. Right then, Glasvegas' "Daddy's Gone" fires up as the soundtrack. Nicely done! [8D]

Now we'll need a Strangest Place You've Heard Next Wave thread.

Chuck always seems to have some new tunes on there. I heard The Switches "Drama Queen once.
