Fifteen years separate this sixth Fratellis album from their first, the famous Costello Music (2006), which had nothing to do with (and sounded nothing like) Elvis Costello, featured their surprise hit Chelsea Dagger which took the band to immediate worldwide success (with nearly two million copies sold). The three pseudo-Fratellis brothers (the three friends present themselves as the Fratelli brothers despite having nothing Italian about them and not being brothers), skillfully embroider rock ritornellos with a very satisfying vintage patina. Once a stage is set, it stays set: this sixth album is once again an invention, a concept, a look. The title is itself very cinematic, Half Drunk Under a Full Moon. The ten songs that make up the album are each a scene that you can easily imagine while listening to the lyrics... Like Strangers in the Street which flirts with the kitsch of an overbearing romanticism. We then find behind these songs this ironic Scottish spirit, often seductive. Moreover, the most obvious influence, listening to Half Drunk Under a Full Moon, is a tribute to the doo-wop of Sixties girl groups and the Motown of Berry Gordy, from the Supremes to the Marvelettes through Martha & The Vandellas. The aptly-named Need A Little Love is offbeat and successful, with its catchy chorus. These three musicians are experts in retro and when listening to each of the tracks we can feel the sixties seep from every sonic pore. The Wall of Sound effect, so dear to the late Phil Spector, seems to be infused throughout the whole album, gripping on The Last Songbird, adding to the singularity and anachronism of the project. In the end, the three rock forgers demonstrate their know-how and make Half Drunk Under a Full Moon an experience which while not necessarily very original, is very expertly rendered. © Yan Céh/Qobuz
