Title: What an awesome band!!
Product review: Let's see...does playing their two albums 24/7 in my car for 2 months straight qualify them as my favorite band? Um...I suppose it does! For those not in the know, they are related to Mando Diao in that 2 brothers are in SF and one is in Mando Diao. MD has a US-release and gets much more press over here but I've heard both their recent releases and I like Sugarplum's rockin powerpop sound much better. MD is more Vines/Strokes sound and less refined. For those of you that liked this one, Sugarplum has a brand new release 'First Round, First Minute' with the smokin' tracks 'Last Chance' and 'MaryGold' and it's even better than this one. The US definitely needs to know about this band!
