In the past few years, films such as 'Finding Nemo,' 'Shrek' and 'Shark Tale' have accustomed audiences to children's movies filled with enough complicated jokes to keep the older people in the family entertained.

For a band that tends to write melancholic songs about the outcast and overlooked members of society (Judy hiding under the covers with a flashlight reading about horses or Anthony hiding melted Toblerone under his school uniform), Belle and Sebastian have made an abrupt 180 on their new album, The Life Pursuit. An album of undeniably fun and upbeat songs, this release is already 'pursuing' higher chart positions.
