CD DetailsSynopsis
Album Description Before Four Tet was remixing Radiohead and Coldplay and before Adem was performing with David Byrne and Fairport Convention, they were breaking new ground as Fridge, a trio formed in 1996 with fellow schoolmate Sam Jeffers. After three critically acclaimed albums, they're back with "The Sun", their most celebrated album yet. It's a dense, aggressive record that casually blends post-punk, left-field funk, free jazz, folk, noise, and Krautrock into one sound that, despite the years and each individual's development, is unmistakably trademark Fridge.

CD ReviewsSomething like love... Feminist Review blog | worldwide | 09/13/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "When I listened to The Sun for the first time, I immediately fell asleep. This may sound like an insult, but it is far from it! It was the best nap I've had in a while.
The album starts off with its title track, a drum-driven opener that is moved along by an ancient sounding whistle that resembles the noise that would pour out of a spaceship. The song blends into the second track off the album, "Clocks," which takes a while to speed up to its smooth rhythm guitar and dreamy xylophones that are reminiscent of the band Tristeza. It's hard to not make a comparison, since both Fridge and Tristeza lack vocals and rely primarily on guitar driven harmonies. The only track on The Sun that includes any sort of vocals is "Lost Time," which has a build up drums and piano accompanied by the harmonized humming of the band. The only fast paced song on the album is "Eyelids," with its thick bass lines and teetering guitars. It jolts the album forward but strays away from its originally soft, yet drum heavy, sound throughout. Overall, The Sun is the sort of album that you could easily not have an opinion about. I'm still unsure whether I love it, but I do know that there is something about it that I like. It's the kind of album you could listen to at night and will lull you to sleep (in a positive way)." |
