The Cars - «Candy-O» (1979)
WV+CUE+LOG or MP3 CBR 320 | 36:25 min | 240 or 87 MB
Genre: New Wave / Pop Rock

On their second album, the Cars take a small step to the left. While remaining a solidly mainstream new wave band (as they would throughout their career), the group gets a bit artier on CANDY-O, with impressive results. Like many of their peers, the band began to accentuate the angular, electronic/futuristic aspect of their sound, exploiting its inorganic quality for maximum irony and detachment.
