What the label says:

An unconventional three-piece with a 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.
Recorded by Peter Katis (Mercury Rev, Interpol) over the space of two weeks, and mixed over the ensuing fortnight, ‘Midnight Organ Fight’ was conceived and realised in a much shorter time span than its predecessor, with the intention of creating a more coherent, ‘pop’ sounding album.
An incredibly accomplished live outfit, having supported the likes of We Are Scientists and Idlewild already, their performances at times recall the ragged, muscular energy of emo/punk three pieces such as early Sebadoh, though Frightened Rabbit’s oeuvre nevertheless harbours a far more universal agenda.
Lyrically ranging from incisive social commentary to lucid, humorous explorations of interpersonal relationships, Scott’s songs are essentially folk tinged pop with more fervent ambitions. Not dissimilar in tone and scope to alternative pop peers such as Belle and Sebastian, Frightened Rabbit also have an anthemic knack that could see them talked of in the same breath as fellow Scots Snow Patrol.
Frightened Rabbit are already building up a head of steam at press (national and web) and radio thanks to the acclaimed ‘Sing The Greys’ LP, and surrounding singles. Coming just months after the bands acclaimed debut LP, this album (and the surrounding singles and tourdates) will mark the second phase in a campaign that should see Frightened Rabbit’s profile continue to rise, with more releases and touring to come well into 2008.

About the humble CD:

The CD is essentially a small portable face mirror which has an extra feature of being able to play music (through a thing known as a CD player). These CD's are a modern invention hence them being all shiny and digital. They can hold about 80 minutes of music and apparently are indestructible as you can smear jam on them and they still play (not as nourishing as toast mind you but when you're hungry.....). They sound crystal clear and are tiny convenient things. They lack the charm and warmth of their old analogue counterparts but their portability, convenience and ease of being duplicated make them a perfect thing of a thing for most folks. Jewel cases are the worst thing ever though and they really need to stop.

'uh.... my eyes.... everything's so bright here.'
