I was somewhat shocked to see The Magic Numbers get a short write-up in Reader’s Digest (of all places!) this month. It’s hard to believe that a magazine that my mom reads is recommending a band that I like!
The Magic Numbers is just such a different sounding band. They sound like a cross between ABBA and The Strokes, if you can imagine that. Their first album was pretty awesome, although it sort of fizzled toward the end.
I have heard bits of their second album, and it seems like a strong follow-up. Unfortunately, iTunes does not carry it. The first single off the new album is called “Take a Chance” (no wonder they remind me of ABBA?)
