This British trio thankfully diverges from the brit-pop formula by crafting a well honed rock sound with a hint of the blues. With their opening song, "Cherry Lips", they set a driving, moody tone for the rest of the album.
If you like Kings of Leon, Sons & Daughters, or the Dirtbombs give these guys a spin.

Review: Fratellis - Costello Music
I have to thank Steve Jobs on this one. Apple used one of the Fratellis songs ("Flathead") on a recent iPod commercial. I tracked down an import of their album (which has since been released stateside) and silently cursed Mr Jobs since I liked the CD.
This Scottish trio plays energentic, indie rock that I often associate with British bands. Listening to Costello Music makes me want to play it loud in a convertible on a summer day. They play in the same sandbox as the Arctic Monkeys or the Kooks and I bet would be great to see live.
