    About this album

    Candy-O is The Cars at their most streamlined and assured, turning new wave cool into a tightly wound pop-rock statement. Released in 1979, the album followed a breakthrough debut and helped cement the band’s reputation for clean lines, sharp hooks and sly emotional distance. Produced by Roy Thomas Baker, it pairs Ric Ocasek’s clipped songwriting and Benjamin Orr’s resonant vocals with layered guitars and glossy studio precision. The title track and lead single “Let’s Go” became key songs in the band’s rise, while the album’s controlled polish made it one of the definitive late-1970s examples of radio-ready art-rock crossover.

    Genre: Pop & Rock
