Limited vinyl LP pressing. 2015 release, the fourth album from the Britpop trio. Eyes Wide, Tongue Tied is an 11-song tour de force, recorded in Los Angeles with Tony Hoffer (Beck, Air), producer-architect of both their debut album and of Jon's solo album Psycho Jukebox. It is a muscularly tuneful, sonically vibrant album - one that should make another planned year's worth of touring a whole new adventure. "When we listened to the mixes recently I remember smiling uncontrollably. It's the same feeling I get when I see my son, who plays drums and who is utterly, utterly obsessed with music. I was getting glimpses of that feeling you got when you first started playing - and when I put this record on when we first got it back, I had that same feeling: wow, look what we did. It's really basic and inarguable when you get that feeling. "But also, to be honest, Barry, Mince and I get it every time we go out and play," affirms Jon, his passion for performing as unquenchable as his ability to writer a killer tune. "On stage every night, it seems recaptured. So it seems unending, really. You walk on, no matter how terrible the day's been, and you're back to being that excited 17-year-old. And if that keeps going," he smiles in conclusion, "we'll keep going." With The Fratellis' rocking, rolling, rollicking, energetic and energizing Eyes Wide, Tongues Tied there's no question - it's job brilliantly done, again
