After some long deliberations and discussions with our producer Scott on the direction of the band, we’ve decided to go in a new direction with our music. The new album is Sparkle Patrol and the band is being renamed Glitter Squad.
We think you’re all lovely people and want to hug you to pieces. We did not make this decision lightly. It became important to us that our music took on a more positive tone and really was a collective reflection of us as individuals.
Scott helped us strip away our walls to discover what our common essence was, and we’ve distilled it down into the new album. I’m very pleased to present a free track to play and download, our new single “Man Sandwich:”

You can also play it in the player in the upper right corner of the page. Here’s a full track listing from the upcoming Sparkle Patrol:

- Butter Me Up
- He’s Not Gay, Just Heterosexually Challenged
- Behind the Times (and you)
- Dressed to Thrill
- Cockfighting

- Dancing King
- Turn Me On Then Turn Me Around
We’ll be having a sale soon on old school NoCo merchandise and then shortly thereafter we’ll have some official Glitter Squad merch available because you guys are 100% fab. Thanks so much for sticking by us.
Love,
Glitter Squad
I was skeptical about this change until I heard “Man Sandwich.” Now I understand what you guys are about and I think Glitter Squad will be fab-u-lous! I can’t wait to hear “Turn Me On Then Turn Me Around”–it sounds like a lovely ballad.

Man Sandwich is amazing! I want to listen to it on a loop while eating a mantastic man sandwich. I, too, can’t wait to hear Turn Me On Then Turn Me Around. If it’s half as good as the title, you guys should have a #1 single on your glittery hands.
