Album of the Day: The Courteeners - ANNA
Indie |
Thursday 21st February 2013 | Fiona
My album of the day has to be the latest release from The Courteeners “ANNA”. It has literally been on repeat since the day I purchased it off iTunes. The album itself has been three years in the waiting, but for me it was definitely worth it. I couldn’t wait to get all their new material into my ears after listening to the first single off the album “Lose Control”, and the first track on the record “Are You In Love With A Notion?” doesn’t disappoint at all.
It’s everything you want to listen to and more. Liam Fray definitely has your foot tapping within the first few seconds. On 6th February, “ANNA” was Number 1 in the official midweek charts, but it ended up coming in at Number 6, with the Les Miserables sound track returning to Number 1 for its third non-consecutive week.
Their UK tour kicks off tonight in Nottingham, with supporting guests Findlay, and they round it all off at the O2 Brixton Academy next month on Saturday 16th March.
I cannot recommend this album enough, so go out and listen to it, and if you can still get tickets, head to one of their gigs. I’ve got my ticket.
