The Skinny

One Man Army is the second album by Scottish alternative folk rock band Kassidy. The album was released on 27 September 2012 through Mercury Records.

Production

The album was recorded at Rockfield Studios in a week.

Critical reception

The Guardian wrote that the band "certainly fall back on derivative harmonic techniques – any resemblance to Crosby, Stills & Nash is, presumably, intentional – and aim for a sweetly emollient guitar sound rather than originality." The Skinny wrote that "Kassidy seem to have taken every single step to be as inoffensive as possible."
