Glasvegas

[Baby Huey]

I hate this band with a passion, I hope they do not make it big as if I have to hear them on a regular basis I will do something irrational.

The singer sounds like a total who should have been strangled at birth.

Judge for yourself.

Are you not liking the Scotchish?
Stay away from the proclaimers is my advice.

[Baby Huey]

Nothing against the Scots, I just find his voice very grating.

I quite like them. Makes a refreshing change from all the "The Somethings" we get drowned in these days.

Went to the Godiva festival in Coventry, and they were on the lineup just before "The Enemy" (local band), and were announced as the greatest band around at the moment. Suffice to say that went down like a lead lung !!!!!!

ps...........there shiney & bright

I hate how glasgow gets referred to as glasvegas in the first place, glasgow doesnt need to have the name of a dusty gambling cesspool attached to it in any way. The band sound interesting, I'll have to hear more but at least it isnt another bunch of tits from that "brit school" or wrs singing in an american accent (Mcfly).

Album's out this week. It's OK, but rather dreary and repetetive, and seems to be entirely about social problems and knife crime.... i.e. depressing!

I much prefer the Twilight Sad - who do the same Scottish thing, but much better!

I thought they were a Proclaimers tribute act. I stand corrected.

[Baby Huey]

Forget your dad, he's gone.

Singing like that I'm not fking suprised he left.

I've just been to Edinburgh and Glasvegas are on posters everywhere and in every magazine. Is it cos they is Scots?

Well I think they are excellent, one of the best albums I have bought this year.

I have not heard anything by them, but if their singers' appearance on Never Mind the Buzzcocks a few weeks back is anything to go by, they are a bunch of to55ers who more than likely produce basic, non-eventful music that will be long forgotten in a years time.

Nothing like a prejudice on appearance rather than substance

Anyone would think you were a music journalist.

Don't mind them, just don't find them that special.

As for Glasgow being referred to as Glasvegas it is a bit of a travesty. There is certainly no glitz and the only flashing lights are police and ambulances
