While trying to fall asleep last night I was youtubing music videos.. I came across this gem by Frightened Rabbit.
Similar to my weird meltdown re: Firehouse, while watching this video I remembered the weird sense of betrayal that I had when I first listened to this album.. a betrayal that was entirely my fault.
my reaction to first hearing “Midnight Organ Fight” was..
why don’t I already know about this album?? and why hasn’t anyone alerted me to it..
I almost had this weird everyone must hate me feeling..
In reality I’d had every opportunity to know about this record and had ignored all of them. Pitchfork which I read every morning reviewed it, Quickcrit a site that I read and contribute to reviewed it and All Songs Considered a podcast that I subscribe to had a glowing review of it as well…
Sometimes my own weirdness amazes me…
Like they say better late than never though.. The music video filmed in the classroom really made me fall in love with Frightened Rabbit even further..
