buckle up music lovers, because CARS are back with their iconic album "Candy-O" on Ultra Clear Vinyl courtesy of Rocktober.
This reissue is sweeter than a Willy Wonka golden ticket, transporting you back to the heyday of new wave and power pop.
From the moment you drop the needle, you're greeted with the mesmerising synths of "Let's Go", setting the tone for a joyride through 80s nostalgia.
Ric Ocasek's vocals are as smooth as butter on a hot crumpet, effortlessly gliding over the upbeat instrumentation.
Tracks like "It's All I Can Do" and "Dangerous Type" are pure ear candy, with infectious hooks that will have you reaching for the repeat button faster than you can say "cheeky Nando's".

But don't be fooled by the glossy exterior, there's a darker undercurrent running through "Candy-O" that adds depth and intrigue to the album.
Songs like "Night Spots" and "Shoo Be Doo" explore themes of longing and desire, giving the record an emotional weight that lingers long after the final track fades out.
Overall, this reissue of "Candy-O" is a must-have for any music aficionado.
So grab your spandex jumpsuit, crank up the volume, and let CARS take you on a wild ride through the neon-soaked streets of the 80s.
