Friendlier Up Here is the debut studio album by the Irish mod/pop rock quartet, The Aftermath. It was released on 25 April 2008.

Contents

The album featured three singles which had previously entered the Irish Singles Chart, all inside the Top 20; "One is Fun/Are You Not?" spent two weeks in the chart and peaked at #11, "Hollywood Remake/Need" also spent two weeks in the chart and peaked at #19 whilst latest single "All I Want is For You to Be Happy" spent a week in the chart at #13. The lead single was the album's opener "Are You Not Wanting Me Yet?".

The title comes from a lyric in the song "Northern Lingerie", which was later released as a single. It refers to what band member Johnny Cronin called "a safer zone for your listening pleasure" and is "a big LSD reference too" in homage to Echo & the Bunnymen.
