Friday Recommendations – Bombay Bicycle Club

October 29, 2010 By Jessica Astronaut 1 Comment

I don’t recall how I came to know the band Bombay Bicycle Club, but it’s been great. They’re a band made up of British men who have an undeniably original sound and a firm grasp on the written word. Within seconds, I was hooked to their second album, Flaws. It’s 36.7 minutes of pure bliss. There’s a good chance they are better than 99.9% of the music you’re listening to right now or maybe I have a thing for the British. Either way, I say they’re a go and perfect for this time of year.
