A personal favourite band of mine here withe their 3rd studio album 'A Winter Of Mixed Drinks'. this the follow up to 'Midnight Organ Fight' p.s you must buy 'Midnight Organ Fight' its the best.
anyways, on with the review. Usually a band has a dodgey second album after their debut and pull it round on the third release, i thinks thats a fair comment. But there are exeptions to every rule. With Frightened Rabbit they kind of rip up all the common trends and do it there own way, and thats what they have been doing since their debut in 2006.
The album is great again for sure, but i just feel that it would have had to be one of the greatest albums ever to top there second album, but i suppose thats not a bad thing for the band the hear from the punters. Again its a very accomplished piece of work with a wonderful sound of freshness and gritty honesty. I love Scott Hutchinson (lead vocalist) i feel he's a perfect canidate for an 'unsung heroe' award. This album unfrotunatley wont take them to the forefront of the indie scene and to be quite hoenst i dont think they will care. They love what they do and are very true to themselves and there music, they wont change there sound to go mainstream and hats off fo this point alone. Selkirk's best kept secret.... Frightened Rabbit
