Anyone into this English band that came out in 2014? They were completely off my radar until last month but I've really been digging both of their albums: Everybody Wants from 2014 and Young & Dangerous from 2018.

It might be a bit to poppy for some here, but the songs are super catchy. They've been a regular on my playlist this month.

I think I've heard of this band before but I don't remember anything about them. But I really dig those tracks you posted; you HAD to know this would be in my wheelhouse; right in the glam/sleaze sweet spot. Off to investigate...

Yeah, those are my favorite tracks and I figured you'd dig those! Like I said though, they do sometimes drift into the pop realm (i.e., they even released a version of "Body Talks" with Kesha doing guest vocals--why I have no idea because it sounds dreadful).

I've checked them out on Amazon and have been meaning to dig in further. I like what I hear.

Same here. I've had their album in my cart, then remove it for one reason or another.

I've listened and while one song will be good they then do a poppy radio song that makes me give up on them.

I like them. They remind me of a 70's glam band with some modern musical elements thrown in for good measure.

They have some catchy stuff. I can listen to them when I’m in the right mood. They remind me of a cross between Queen and The Killers.
