I've come upon their myspace very recently, and I think they're great! I'm sure they're even better live!

Living In Colour is my song of the moment :)

yay! 'Mon the Rabbit!

 

Even though its been a while since their last album. SHOW THE LOVE, people!

 

Hate your slutty ex-boyfriend or girlfriend? Scream out "Keep Yourself Warm" in the mirror.

Having a bad day? Listen to "Swim Until You Can't See Land"

Having trouble getting out of bed? Listen to "The Wrestle" that intro will kick your ass up.

Just want to smile? Listen to "Nothing Like You" or "The Twist"

 

Gooooo! do it now!

:D

Should break open The Midnight Organ Fight soon...

Bump :awesome: They have a new EP out (or at least it leaked).

 

A Frightened Rabbit Tour EP

 

1. Scottish Winds

2. Fuck This Place

3. The Work

 

I might see them when I go to New York :wacky: They're supporting DCFC

New EP? :awesome:

Mhm :wacky: and it's quite good.

I just saw them the other night opening for Death Cab for Cutie in Brooklyn, and I was blown away. I knew nothing of them or about them, but from the first song I knew that they were going to be one of the better openers I've seen in my time. The following day I listened to all their albums on Spotify and now intend to buy all three soon :dance:

Whew! Good band!

I was thinking about going to that, actually, but I'm not a huge fan of DCFC :tongue:

high time for a bump for this band, methinks...

 

anyway, here's 3 videos including Scottish Winds (well, 2 at the moment...1 more coming soon pending vanquishing of technical difficulties) Sleepover Show #74: Frightened Rabbit

 

love seeing these guys live...have since seen them twice in London & once in Bristol in different settings/environments & they've been great all 3 times! :)

 

& Scott draws really well! got his drawing of "The Iceman" on a Guardian G2 supplement/pullout at their Shepherd's Bush gig last winter. talented.

So should be a new album coming apparently :')

:dance:

I saw them live for free last year and they were amazing

Recorded but not mixed, huh? I imagine it'll be out some time in the last quarter. Late October/early November, maybe? Or does it really not take that long to mix an album?

um i'm not sure anymore ...

but apparently there's an EP too.

That's neat :surprised: A pity the album got pushed back, tho.

When can we expect to hear the new songs?

The full length album is out in January, but there’s gonna be an EP before that with one song from the record on it as well as four songs that didn’t quite make the cut. Up until then, we’ll be touring.

What are your thoughts the EP as a format, compared to the more traditional length album?

I really like it! I think B-sides can get lost sometimes but the EP gives some of these songs a cohesive whole, something to be a part of.

All very exciting! Is it too early yet to tell us the names of these new records?

The lead track from the EP is called ‘State Hospital’, so that’s what that one will be called… I haven’t told anyone that yet, actually! As for the album, you’ll have to wait and see!

:awesome:

:surprised: I haven't heard of this band until now. What are they like , who do they sound like? I want to get into a new band :dance:

They're kind of indie pop, I guess. They're a Scottish band and a lot of their lyrics are quite tragic.

 

A good place to start.

Thanks for the heads up, Kat.

:wacky:

Wow that's kind of a downer

Currently downloading Pedestrian Verse :dance:

I'm waiting for it to come in da post.

 

Although it's Sainsburys Ents, so probably be Wednesday before it comes :(

 

(Brilliant customer services, cheap prices, the only thing that lets it down is them being cheap and using TNT post which I'm sure is great in major cities where TNT deliver it themselves, but out in the rural land TNT put it into royal mail)

I'm too impatient to wait ...
