Found - You're Really Quite The Catch

4/5 stars
Single review by Euan Ferguson.
Published 30 September 2008

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]
