The Fratellis Release New Album

The Fratellis released their sophomore album, Here We Stand on June 12th and finished up the U.S. leg of their international tour. The Scottish band will return continue their international tour with a string of festival appearances on June 27th at the Glastonbury Festival. Described by Blender as a band who is “unwilling to chose between postpunk and vaudeville,” the new album is a slight departure from this formula, but still promises to be fun and upbeat.
