With the fury of a few Humble Pies and the forward propulsion of the Fratellis and Libertines, the View can be forgiven for sharing their name with ABC's daytime talk show. The Scottish quartet's a scrappy and needly bunch, opening their debut with "Comin Down," an angular, barking tune that gets its power dually from Kyle Falconer's short, sharp wail and a piercing twin-guitar slash. Those same guitars dish out sweet strumming for "Same Jeans," a danceably jumping paean to night-clubbing, sidewalk musicians, and "dressing down." The View like their guitars transluscent and sunny, as on "The Don," where they go all call-and-response, making a fast-shuffling vibe that brings Falconer from sweet-voiced narration to a scouring shout, as his mates harmonize, increasing the sunniness. Like their countrymen in the Fratellis, the View ought to find that bigger stage to stumble toward. --Andrew Bartlett
