Frightened Rabbit Artist Snapshot:

Hailing from Glasgow, Scotland, Frightened Rabbit is essentially the vehicle for singer/guitarist Scott Hutchison and his moody indie-rock tunes. Hutchinson's songs are marked by an urgent approach, spare instrumentation, and plaintive vocals, with both folk and post-punk incorporated into the mix. While Frightened Rabbit's debut, SINGING THE GREYS, garnered some buzz, the act's second outing, THE MIDNIGHT ORGAN FIGHT, resulted in even more attention on both sides of the pond.

Review

Uncut (p.88) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "The world view is challenging and heart-felt, the playing deft, the conviction clear."
Magnet (p.106) - "The album's mid-tempo songs display Hutchinson's vocals to the fullest emotive effect....THE MIDNIGHT ORGAN FIGHT's bloodied-but-unbowed lyrics stand up to repeated listening even on the fastest cuts."
Global Rhythm (Publication) (p.45) - "With an urgency that recalls the best of Okkervil River or The Frames, Frightened RAbbit step into the cynic's ring with gloves on, hell-bent on delivering euphoric pop upper cuts and brilliant songwriting jabs."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.108) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[A]n uplifting record of angular alt-folk....It gets right under the skin, Hutchison's songs performed with utter conviction."
Paste (magazine) (p.78) - "[T]his time, FRIGHTENED RABBIT favors major-key immediacy over melancholy inhibition....Few bands do so well making songs built for arenas sound like they also belong in bedrooms."
Clash (magazine) (p.108) - "Scott Hutchinson's affirming lyrics and plaintive voice manage to translate a wealth of emotion....It really gets under your skin."

Title Note

Signaling a return to simplicity in U.K. indie rock, Frightened Rabbit matured immeasurably between their first releases and 2008's THE MIDNIGHT ORGAN FIGHT, their second record for Fat Cat Records. With Peter Katis--who lent his Midas touch to Interpol and the National--at the production helm, THE MIDNIGHT ORGAN is a fresh guitar opus with lean and mean arrangements that highlight the primary strength of the Hutchinson brothers' songwriting: a gripping emotional directness that never verges on self-indulgence.


Editorial Reviews

TOWER.COM REVIEW

Album Review

Glasgow trio Frightened Rabbit combine sharp with with a gift for nailing the perfect guitar-pop hook. Having received well-deserved attention for their limited-release debut, Sing The Greys (reissued by FatCat last year), the band recorded their follow-up, The Midnight Organ Fight, with Peter Katis (Interpol, Spoon), in order to achieve the grandeur suited to the fervent ambition of their new songs.The result is a huge step forward for the band sonically, while they retain the acerbic, quirky lyrics they’re becoming known for. As singer Scott Hutchison puts it, “I feel the general FR weirdness is still apparent in the lyrics and this makes for an interesting sort of juxtaposition. It sounds kind of clean, but it’s actually pretty fucking dirty once you get listening.
