Scottish rock musicians seem to be all the rage in my music collection all the time. Here are a few for your consideration:
- Malcolm Middleton is your man if you want sad-happy wit. “You’re gonna break my heart I know it. But if you don’t, you’re gonna break my run of unhappiness and destroy my career.” If you like that, start with Into the Woods.
- We Were Promised Jetpacks has such an awesome name that I had to buy their album. Luckily, These Four Walls is very good. Highlights include “Conductor” and “It’s Thunder and Lightning.”
- Frightened Rabbit starts The Midnight Organ Fight with a song that refers to lepers. I think this is a play on the Latin lepus for rabbits. Well, whatever. If you like Arcade Fire but are really tired of playing their one good album over and over, you will probably want to welcome FR into your life.
