the fratellis
Here's more of the same from the Scottish trio who brought us Costello Music in '06. Not that its a bad thing. The tracks on Here We Stand, their second offering, may not be as effervescent as their irresistible debut, but all the familiar elements are there, along with the 60s-esque sound and the vocals of frontman Jon Fratelli who sounds like he's having fun throughout, something which you'll feel yourself sharing in as you listen to the cd (now that was one helluva long sentence, for which I apologize but will make no amends). I wouldn't go as far as to say that the band has turned more mellow on their second outing, but it would be fair to say that the songs have a slower burn than before. Nevertheless its still good stuff which you shouldn't sleep on, go grab it now. Yes, right now.
