Another stirring power-pop showing from The Goodbye Radio, “We Love You, Glasgow” plays tribute to Scotland’s fantastic indie rock legacy — spanning from Teenage Fanclub and Simple Minds. The production’s soaring vocals, brass-y incorporations, and jangling guitars combine for a fervently infectious appeal, arriving into a title-bearing proclamation with smitten allure and a “that’s for sure” definitive prowess — “even though I’ve never stepped foot there before.” The power of music on a global level is channeled in melodically delightful form here, marking another success from the band, catching our ears in the past with cuts like “Twisted Time Travelers” and “That’s the Point.”
