Glasvegas - Geraldine

Business as usual, after just three singles

Single Review by Finbarr Bermingham | 23 May 2008
Single title: Geraldine
Artist: Glasvegas
Label: Columbia
Release date: 23 Jun

It may sound premature to say so, just three singles into their career, but new single Geraldine is business as usual for Glasvegas. Quite how long it takes for expectations to be legitimately formed is unclear, but Go Square Go! and Daddy's Gone set a very high precedent, creating a momentum that this cut shows no sign of letting up on. The Geraldine in question is a social worker and as James Allan would have it, "the angel on your shoulder." Not a subject explored every day in music but that’s exactly what we like about Glasvegas: they’re not your everyday band. Now then lads (and lass), how about that album? [Finbarr Bermingham]
