At first I thought Here We Stand was...not a dissappointment, but just not the Fratellis. But when you let it sink in you really start to realize how fantastic it is musically. It's different, but it is definitely a grower.
I completely understand where you are coming from. Sorry to sound like a d bag talking down with a few big words, and now reading it back it sounds almost like I was scolding you. Anyway, i really like Gas Light Anthem too, but again taste is subjective. Who are we to tell others what to like, all we can do is say what we like and why we like it.
"What is good" is an opinion, I personally like the song because it is up tempo and fun to listen to. I am more than willing to say that some of the music I enjoy is completely vacuous and is listened to just because I like the way it sounds and is kind of catchy.
If you don't like them don't listen to them. However, if you want to criticize them I am more than willing to listen to the arguements as long as you present them in a mature fashion
it seems like they lost a lot of the energy that made their first album so great. back then it was like the band was the only friends any of them had, now they're doing a gig upside down over a banquet table. sex, drugs, partying, and touring must really take a lot out of you.
Haha. I love how people say the second album sucks and its not Fratelli's like. First off, the second album definitely had its share of classics, and I actually enjoyed it more than Costello Music, although theyre really two different types of albums. Also, Jon said that Here We Stand was them deciding to make the music they wanted vs repeating the same old, so if you dont think it's true Fratelli's... guess you just dont like what the true Fratellis is.
One of my fave bands! Love the instrumental in the middle (2.31), with likenesses to The knack - My Sharona Roxy Music - Virginia Plain. Muse - Knights of Cydonia and The Sweet - Hellraiser! Excellent :-)
All you naysayers are nuts. There's plenty of great songs on this album...My Friend John, A Heady Tale, Acid Jazz Singer, Mistress Mabel, and Shameless are all classics!
Poor Fratellis, Costello Music was the best album ever invented, but then they came out with Here We Stand...I like songs like Mistress Mabel and Milk and Money, but Costello Music had the genuine Fratellis sound...They need to get that back in the next album their coming out with

You need to learn English too.
Wot isn't a word. You miss the first capital of the sentence. "r" and "u" aren't words. You miss the apostrophe after talkin. You forgot to capitalize English.
You're a fucking failure. People who are incapable of writing their own language even though they have a decent education need to be shot.
I get irritated by chatspeak too, but you don't need to have a massive go at everyone who uses it. If that's the way that they want to communicate it's up to them, especially as they weren't even talking to you in the first place.
Haha, your English sucks too "Good, cause otherwise you sound like a retard". Cause; def: The outcome of an action. Because; def: well i cant think of a definition of because. So obviously i suck at speaking our own language also. WE ALL SUCK !
Don't get angry because you where illiterate. By the way, you should have used the plural of swine, seeing as you said "people of youtube" meaning more than one and not person. HAHA I WIN AGAIN! Go back to school you half witted, toothless, inbred swine.
personally, i like both styles. hes got a really great voice to sing something like mabel. the old singing was a bit scratchy, but still great. now it sounds more googoodolls like
hey guys trying loads to see hwo many people i can get to subscribe to my channel there nothing much interesting on it but ive made a bet with my friends to see if i can get passed 1000 within a month
I just listened to their new album and I was sort of disappointed that pretty much all the songs missed the energy and vibe that Costello Music had ... Chelsea Dagger, Henrietta, For the Girl etc
But the Fratellis still are one of the best bands I know...
The 2nd album is a bit different in style. You can't expect them to not change things up a bit, at least, otherwise all their songs start sounding the same. But I do know what you mean... a lot of their songs lack energy, even if they are aiming for something different.
hey... when the singer is standing in the hall cealing his guitar is pointing to the right... but when he's with the rest of the band on that big rooms cealing it's to the left... anyone else notice that?
