Frightened Rabbit Finish Album 2009-07-19 by SeaAnemone | 11 Comments | Scottish indie rock band Frightened Rabbit have finished recording their third album and will start mixing soon.
Frontman Scott Hutchinson, in an interview with The Village Voice, describes some new sounds and themes that stray away from the more pop-oriented 2008 release The Midnight Organ Fight.
Hutchinson said: "It's really just the treatment of the songs that has changed. The way I write songs is still the same-I still love a chorus. There's something nice about having that kind of standard pop structure to hang something slightly different onto. Lyrically, it doesn't focus on the same theme..I wrote a lot of the record in quiet solitude. A friend of mine had an empty house on the east coast of Scotland. Tiny, tiny village, very remote.
"And I went there to write it. A lot of it focuses on the sea and the remoteness of that. Not necessarily my situation, but the general feeling of losing yourself within something, whether that be physically or geographically. Or whether it's chemicals or something-just losing yourself."
The record, currently untitled, is tentatively slated for a Spring 2010 release.

| | | Oh snap! This is great news! Midnight Organ Fight is simply fantastic in every way, and I really like idea of solitude and losing yourself that this album seems to have. I can't wait.
