An "indie" band from Glasgow, England. Has three members Jon, Barry and Mince Fratelli (real names John Lawler, Barry John Wallace, and Gordon McRory). Their band name coms from 'The Goonies'.
Their genre is best described as post-punk indie rock, taking cues from the post-punk 70's movement, but with a general 'indie' sound. Their songs tend to have 'lalala's, 'bada, ba bada ra ra ra's, 'dur dur dur's, etc. Many people say Jon Fratelli sounds a bit like John Lennon.
They have released several singles and an EP as well as an album 'Costello Music' in the UK, however only the Flathead EP and 'Costello Music'are available in the US.
As of November 2007, the Fratellis are working on a second album, soon to be released.
Their songs have been featured in several trailers, the movie 'Hot Fuzz', and an iPod commercial.

Get the Frable mug.by Tori!! February 12, 2009
Get the Frably mug.When one is congratulated too many times, frequently, and over-exitedly, and they become frazzled. It is of Jewish origin, from the root word "Mazeltov" meaning congratulations.
Zeidi was in a state of frazeltov at his barmitzvah as family and friends took it upon themselves to offer their most profound congratulations in a repetitive manner.

"I was driving and the plow Frabble sucked me into the shoulder"
