The Fratellis - Ole Black'n'Blue Eyes Single Review

The Fratellis
Ole Black'n'Blue Eyes
Single Review

One of the success stories of the last 12 months, Scottish trio The Fratellis are set to clock up the air miles over the next few months. As well as festival appearances at Isle Of Wight, Oxegen, T In The Park and V Festival, they play Summer Sonic in Japan and support The Police on the American leg of their world tour.

The fifth and hopefully last single to be lifted from the 'Costello Music' record sees The Fratellis in familiar territory with a gentle acoustic sing-a-long that threatens to overspill before being brought back to down to earth. Jolly and short, it's ideal for end-of-night drunken group hugs, but won't encourage too many more to buy the album - surely those who were thinking of getting it would have by now?
