NEW FRATELLIS ALBUM!

[Reel Big Chris]

june 9th… get psyched.

[Desensitized]

I'll be sure to inform you if you got a screwed tracklist again.

I'm still waiting to find the new Supergrass album. It officially came out a damn month ago…

[madamadam]

Omigod omigod omigod omigod omigod omigod omigod.

I love their first album so much, I can't wait for this!

[Reel Big Chris]

yep… this'll make or break them, so lord willing it's a fucking good as costello music.

kinda on the same topic:

1. any panic! fans?

2. what did you think of their new album?

[madamadam]

1. No
2. Go remove yourself from the gene pool.

[Desensitized]

^LOL. They removed the '!' from their name, by the way. and no, I haven't heard it. But I HAVE heard it's a wannabe Sgt. Pepper.

Since I consider The Fratellis the new Supergrass, their new album needs to be like 'In It For The Money'. Slower but powerful, still has the variety from the debut, and still perfect.

hopefully it takes you where i want it to…

[Reel Big Chris]

yyyyyyyyep… it does. 🙂

[Desensitized]

Looks like I was right in my assumptions. 🙂

First: Fratellis
Second Supergrass

They're both awesome, though.

[Desensitized]

Actually, on YouTube I found a bunch of live performances of new songs that might or might not be on the new album. Sounds good so far.

[madamadam]

Super super super stoked.

Depending on when my exams are, I may even make the trip to Amsterdam to see them in June…

[Reel Big Chris]

on the "edgy at brixton" dvd, they played an acoustic version of "ella's in the band", which i'm gonna assume is one of their new songs… and it's good.

That's a cool tune they have on their page.

[Desensitized]

Chris sent me 3 songs via e-mail. One was a sub-par version of Cuntry Boys & City Girls. PLEASE tell me the US version isn't getting that or something.

[Reel Big Chris]

oh no, that's just the demo. if anyone wants the other tracks, just join the budhill singles club on the fratelli's website. they have a lot of tracks on there, and they're releasing a lot more.

[Desensitized]

How do they manage to crank out so many songs? Geez.

[Reel Big Chris]

no idea. there are a lot of acoustic and demo versions of old songs, but there's a lot of new ones as well. it keeps me tied over till the new album. 🙂

[Desensitized]

Weird that the new Weezer leaked, but no new Fratellis. I really wanna hear where they go on this one.

[Desensitized]

I have the new album and I'm listening right now.

A Heady Tale is my favorite so far. Have you heard it yet, Chris?

[Desensitized]

It's not quite the same, but it's just as good.

I was right comparing it to Supergrass' I Should Coco/In It For The Money progression.

They're both great, but almost complete opposites.

[Desensitized]

And the album is listed as 11 tracks in most places… The US might be getting a gimped version again. *Sigh*

My tracklist is this:

1. My Friend John
2. A Heady Tale
3. Shameless
4. Look Out Sunshine!
5. Stragglers Moon
6. Mistress Mabel
7. Jesus Stole My Baby
8. Babydoll
9. Tell Me A Lie
10. Acid Jazz Singer
11. Lupe Brown
12. Milk & Money

I've seen tracklists without 'Jesus Stole My Baby' on it. Just like some places didn't receive 'Cuntry Boys & City Girls' and some places didn't get 'Ole Black 'N' Blue Eyes' on their copies of 'Costello Music'…

They really need a new label. :/

[madamadam]

I can't understand why certain regions would be deprived of songs released elsewhere. It really makes no sense.

[Desensitized]

Usually, they just give different regions bonus tracks instead of taking actual album tracks off the album.

That makes slightly more sense, though. Not like The Fratellis don't have the songs to spare, either. Labels are just too greedy.

[Reel Big Chris]

i got it this morning, and yeah… it's totally different but still really damn good. is "jesus stole my baby" any good? and they're playing in LA on sunday night, and i'm totally going.

[Desensitized]

It's the 'doginabag' of the album. Very bluesy. I'll send it to you later.

[Reel Big Chris]

rad, thanks man!

[Desensitized]

No problem.

I'm liking this album. This, Weezer's red album, and the Foxboro Hot Tubs have made this quite a fun year for music so far.
