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 LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
