Boozy, rankled scots, Frightened Rabbit are back with a new single, ‘Living In Colour’ released through Fat Cat on 14th June 2010.
The second single to be taken from third-album, 'The Winter of Mixed Drinks', Living In Colour sees Scott Huchison in fine stomping fettle, beating down the walls of heartache, pumping up the volume, drowning in a sea of mixed drinks, and generally spinning around in a grave of his own triumphant making.
Scott: “Its a well worn and classic chord progression that, although I have heard it a ton of times before, I really wanted to pin a Frightened Rabbit song onto. Grant decided that he'd not really done much of the unabashed '4 to the floor' type stomping, so we just went with what felt good, keeping the song uncomplicated. The sentiment itself is simple, kind of like I Feel Better but without any of the self-doubt. It describes a new appreciation of the tiniest things in life, a rejuvenated sense of sight and sound, a general tingling of the nerve-endings, following a reasonably bleak time. I basically wanted to write a big rock song about finding joy in things again, something quite at odds with most of our back catalogue. In a sense, by treading this well-worn ground, we ended up with something new for us - which felt good.”
