22/02/10: THE COURTEENERS- You Overdid It Doll

It's been quite a while since a great indie track has come about, so allow Mancunian indie band The Courteeners to grace your eardrums with this sensational new track. Following on from the success of their UK top 5 album, 'St. Jude', in 2008, the band are back and starting things off with new material from their second album, 'Falcon' which was released today.

To get things started, 'You Overdid It Doll' is a perfect indie song. But then again, perfect is what you can expect from The Courteeners, whose name rings many bells across the Northern music scene. The track is probably so good as The Courteneers have only slightly altered their much celebrated sound from a few years ago. And they've altered it in a very subtle way, with the backing sound behind Liam Fray's vocals being quite dark, but in an alternative dance kind of way. It's also probably a lot more catchier than previous tracks, with the 'You Overdid It Doll' hook ringing in your ears long after you've finished listening to the track. Also, still on this track is Fray's husky voice which made songs such as 'Not Nineteen Forever' so big across the indie scene.

Change isn't always a good thing for bands, and it's welcoming that this track shows that The Courteeners have only slightly altered what was already pretty perfect. 'You Overdid It Doll' is a brilliant first track to release off the band's new album, and it's already making a huge mark across radio stations across the UK.
