join me in anticipating musics by FEVER RAY (aka one half of the knife)

Nice one! My (betterc articulated) thoughts exactly

this part of 'dry and dusty' ftw

Work as I've been told
In return I get money
Small feet in your hall
And I long for every moment

Otm

God yes. That's the exact moment that made me fall in love with this album.

Small feet in your hall?

That's my favorite song on the album.

New profile pic on FB - is it a sign?

Wouldn't that be something? The show I saw Fever Ray play was one of the best by anyone I have ever seen. (Which is more than I can say for the Knife's last jaunt.)

Agreed there. The album and the gig I saw were pretty much my favourite musical experiences of the last decade. The Knife is okay, but it never crept under my skin me the way FR did, so I'm hoping the project will be resurrected some day.

What a phenomenal album... It feels like I keep hearing new details every time I rediscover it.

Oh, and she wrote something for this new thing:

Yeah, it still does it for me too. This and Silent Shout are a great pair of records.

Before Pitchfork, even! Don't know if ILX has ever been this early!

well I like this a lot

shocking, I know

yessssssssss

is there any news on what this is, or a release date? regardless, upcoming fever ray is exciting

Yes!!

well, did someone dial that number yet?

Unngh!

Nintendo ads are getting weird

My visceral reaction to SAnpaku's post is to go "na-na, na-na"

Why not "GoodGodYa'll!". What is this world coming to.

...absolutely nothing?

great news

Fever Ray concert was one of the best and most memorable things I have ever seen.

I dimly recall a lot of lazers, fog, and some sort of antlers.

"Dimly" is apt. So much fog you literally couldn't see much beyond the lasers and antlers/headdress/masks, peeking out like monsters.

No idk what it all means but I'm stoked for the madness.

Hooray!

Link gives me their album cover and no tracks, do you get something different? Does this come out tomorrow?

The single is out on streaming services in some timezones but there's a video on youtube:

well that's fucked up

jfc

Idk about this...it sounds closer to The Knife than Fever Ray... which I don’t mind because I like the Knife but wanted to hear her evolve on the more moody, less pop Fever Ray sound.

Love the “death metal” logo tho.

fucking amazing

I'm guessing is not a Savage Garden cover?

this is just a mediocre Silent Shout (the song) retread

A+ video

Does indeed sound like a cheerful remake of "Silent Shout", but I like it. Have to admit it's a bit of a confusing move to break up The Knife and then make music as Fever Ray that sounds more like The Knife, but I'm pretty much down with whatever she does.

Yeah this is silent shout... the crass lyrics are a bit cringe too. It’s 2017.

Hope there’s at least a couple of songs closer to the debut.

Dont get me wrong the Silent Shout album is awesome but again this is single is not Fever Ray

Kinda wish "To the Moon and Back" did sound more like The Knife. I think Olof contributed more contrapunctal rhythms.

Odd seeing several female musicians doing fetish inspired work this year. Did FKA Twigs start this trend?

I am on board with this.

I only heard/viewed this once but I'm hearing more s/t than Silent Shout (which may be (one of the reasons) why DJP is on board). Need a couple more listens myself to find out how I feel about this

I hadn't articulated that to myself but yeah, I am 100% on board with throwing back to my favorite Knife album.

Love this. She is a true original.

didn't make it to the end, wish their music had the imagination of the rest - this is basically the same sounds as music they were making years and years ago.

For record keeping purposes at least, this thread needs her 2014 collab with Shinedoe, "Discourse is My New Romance". I can hear it as a midpoint between the 2009 tracks and the latest ones.
