Real Sweethearts: Ganglians

Some people call them psychedelic, some people call them weirdos, we call Ganglians out as being just super sweet guys. New single "Candy Girl" takes the band's usual formula - reverb vocals, piercing guitar riffs and lots of hair swooshing and adds a sugar coating of whistles, whirly noises and a Beach Boys-inspired fizz. Already big news in the USA thanks to LP ‘Monster Head Room’, released on Woodist last year, they tour the UK and Europe in May and June in support of the same record on Berlin's Souterrain Transmissions
