The Courteeners - 'Acrylic'

The Courteeners certainly got off the right bus top. Being regarded as one of the best bands that have come out of Manchester in a while is a title that puts you under a lot of expectations and they’ve somehow met them. Admittedly, 'Acrylic,' won’t offer you something you haven’t heard before but its unfeasible to not the enjoy the beat and its blueprint indie structure. And as for the lyric, “you’re just like plasticine being moulded into a libertine dream,” it’s inevitable that that’s the next catchy line that just won’t get out of your head.

Released 22/10/07 on Polydor.
