The alternative indie rock band Grouplove got a head start in their marketing campaign by touring with Florence and the Machine this past summer. This, however is not to say they are similar in anyway. Grouplove is definitely more guitar concentrated while Florence and the Machine uses Welch's incredible voice as its center. As most artists on the single of the week, Grouplove's first album (with Atlantic Records), "Never Trust a Happy Song" was released this past Tuesday. The vocals of the song are okay, lead singer Christian Zucconi's vocal range is not much but he can, as most artists these days, carry out a tune at the very least. I found the song catchy enough to download. I think the band definitely has potential and will give the rest of the album the time of day before completely judging them. With that, download away my fellow music snobs.
p.s. totes want the armchair.
