Yesterday I bought MEGA MEGA MEGA by The Count & Sinden, now if you know me you'll know that this isn't normally the kind of record I would buy, but well if you also knew me you'd know I'm pretty much in love with Mystery Jets and well how can anyone not like After Dark! So on liking that song alone I bought it (it was £5 in Urban Outfitters... cheap!) and well to my surprise I actually like it!
I'm currently listening to what I think will be their next single, it's called Hold Me and it features vocals by Katy B... one of the quickly up coming female singers in the UK, and it's easily my favourite track on the album apart from After Dark of course.
This album isn't perfect, but it's a debut so it shouldn't have to be! Most importantly it's a fun album!
Rating: 7/10
Favourite Tracks: 'Do You Really Want It' - 'After Dark' - 'Hold Me' - 'Llamame'
Ok, Bye.

There are a couple of bands who I would say have released perfect debut albums!
ReplyDeleteArctic Monkeys
Bombay Bicycle Club
Jamie T
Kate Nash
Kings of Leon
The Kooks
La Roux
The Maccabees
The Strokes
Villagers
I think maybe my standards are too low!
I may have to look this up at some point though!
I was going to mention Arctic Monkeys having the absolutle perfect debut album... I think I have to agree with you though with that list, I haven't heard Bombay Bicycle Clubs yet though it's definitely on my to buy list, I don't think you'd like MEGA MEGA MEGA though to be honest!
