They are officially the most stylish band in Scotland, so what better way to bring in the New Year than by swinging and singing along to the Codeine Velvet Clubs debut album released today!  If you can’t make it along to see them live at the Hogmanay celebrations in Edinburgh then it is the must have for any NYE party!

“…it marks a definite departure from The Fratellis’ sound…Hickey’s oft-soft voice drips with a noir-ish menace alongside Lawler’s grizzly barks, a delicious contrast in ‘Vanity Kills’ and ‘Time’ . Boosted by jazz-club horns and a boozy, burlesque chorus, it captures the mood of this record perfectly: gritty Brit music tainted by soul-sucking Hollywood.” – NME

“an album jampacked with everything from a gospel choir to an orchestra. Throw in a big band, an electric sitar and – honestly – a cow-bell and you’ve got one of the most exciting records of 2009.” – Daily Record

You can order the album from Amazon.co.uk for just £6.98 and be in with the chance of receiving an exclusive set of 4 postcards, featuring artwork from the album and single releases, and a portrait of Jon and Lou.  Or go buy it in store now.

The band’s second single, Hollywood / I Am The Resurrection is also released today. You can order this vinyl release exclusively from Recordstore and view a live video of the song from youtube below.
