More Info:
Debut album from hotly tipped Glaswegian three-piece FRIGHTENED RABBIT. Though the past year has seen Frightened Rabbit finally step into public view, with some amazing live shows, the past year or two have largely been about the band quietly, commitedly honing their sound and cultivating their art. That's all set to change, with the release of the band's debut single 'Be Less Rude' An unconventional three-piece with a clearly defined personality, and a gift for being able to nail a near perfect pop song, Frightened Rabbit convey candid tales of ordinary folk with a wry, acerbic wit via an eloquent, emotive, modern garage-pop aesthetic. Suffice to say, their album 'Sings the Greys' is full of that lovely warm guitar sound and melodies that Glasgow bands seem to do so uncannily well.Reviews:
Sing the Greys is the debut studio album by Scottish indie rock band Frightened Rabbit, originally released in May 2006 on Hits the Fan Records, with a limited run of 1000 copies.. A remixed/remastered version was released in the United States by Fat Cat Records on October 2, 2007, and in the UK on November 17, 2007.
In an interview concerning the record's re-release in 2007, vocalist/guitarist Scott Hutchison states that: "little bits and pieces [were] re-recorded. We’ve re-amped some of the drums in different rooms to get an ambience about it. It’s louder and everything is fuller and bigger.
In the same interview, drummer Grant Hutchison states that: "Fat Cat were just going to release it on a low scale as a taster for the new album. But when we remixed and mastered it, it sounded like a proper album and we felt those songs were too good to just brush under carpet."
Scott Hutchison states that, by the end of 2007, the band were "pretty sick of ''Sing the Greys''. We were saying goodbye to that record and just really itching for people to hear the new one."
