If the advance buzz is to be believed:
“So believe it: this is the real thing, no-one’s crying wolf, not even Alan McGee. There’s not enough hype in the world for Glasvegas. They are an important, amazing, real band that won’t let you down. Not because they play real instruments and sing real songs about real people (they’d be just as genuine if they wrote noise collages about interstellar seahorses on MacBooks); they’re real because they put their entire hearts and souls and brains into it. And that is rock’n’roll.” –NME | “The best Scottish band since Franz Ferdinand sets its sight on America.” –nylonmag.com | “If Glasvegas are the most important British breakthrough band of this year, just as MGMT are the most important from America – and the only doubt about that is whether we’re talking merely this year, or years – then traditional values of rock’n’roll cool have little to do with it.” –The Independent
