I recently switched out a load of albums I had in my car and I’ve found myself listening to the latest Frightened Rabbit album, The Midnight Organ Fight (amazon) (itunes), almost continually. I know I mentioned this album just a bit over two months ago, but I do not believe you took my recommendation seriously. If you are part of the few thousand which access The World Forgot on a daily basis then you certainly know by now that I will not lead you astray. I am not a corporate entity seeking to stuff myself full of your hard earned cash. I am a music fan seeking to promote the art that I find to be entertaining.
mp3 : Frightened Rabbit - Poke
Now that I have stolen your attention with my clever banter and obvious intellectual superiority I must encourage you to listen to Frightened Rabbit. This album is quite brilliant from start to finish and not a single track feels out of place or off message. After drifting through this disc an almost countless number of times I have come to appreciate this song, Poke, more and more. The lyrics are stunning, the mood the song and story evoke is simple and elegant, and it might be the best stream of consciousness narrative released this year.

Okay, I’m convinced. Thank you!
I fucking love that record. poke is phenomenal.
GREAT song. I’ve been listening to their stuff all morning.
Had to add this jam to my blog.
Totally agree…am in love w/ this band right now. Can’t wait to see them in concert in January!
matt told me of these guys, however i’m gonna assume he read it here first. i think ‘keep yourself warm’ is the most powerful song on the album.
