Found - You're Really Quite The Catch

Single Review by Euan Ferguson | 30 Sep 2008
Single title: You're Really Quite The Catch
Artist: Found
Label: Fence
Release date: 31 Oct

It feels like rasping Found frontman Ziggy, the drinking man’s Paolo Nutini, scrawled this inappropriately acerbic anti-love ballad to an unsuitable girlfriend at the arse-end of a long, desperate session. Comparisons with fellow morning-after melancholists Arab Strap are inevitable, but Found’s freeform approach to composition and a bottomless music-box of inspiration give them an unexpectedly optimistic humour. Based on their patchwork of seemingly misplaced strums, beeps and clattering drums, You’re Really Quite The Catch sees them reshuffling divergent ideas into their most coherently catchy and approachable work yet. Take notice – Found have found their sound, and it's really quite the catch. [Euan Ferguson]

FOUND play The Mill @ The Caves, Edinburgh on 2 Oct and support James Pants at Voodoo Rooms, Edinburgh on 9 Oct
