OK, so sticking with the recent rabbit theme, Scottish group Frightened Rabbit have come to my attention, with their heavy riffs being far from timid, as their namesake may suggest. It shocks me somewhat that I've never come across this band before, with Scott Hutchison's piercing vocals and well thought lyrics being a winning combination.
Their most recent single, Nothing Like You, was actually released back in March, from their album "The Winter of Mixed Drinks". In my opinion, Nothing Like You was not their strongest offering, with other tracks such as The Loneliness and the Scream grasping my attention.

Well, let's hope the "fresh meat" will be an end to their boredom, as we look forward to hearing a lot more from Frightened Rabbit - everything that fellow Scots Glasvegas failed to achieve. And to get your eardrums going, here's a taster:
