MP3: Fridge - Eyelids

Recommended if you like: Post-rock and instrumental jam.

Welcome to the throbbing and gristly world of instrumental rock where everything is created in a very particular fashion. Fridge, comprised of Kieran Hebden (of Four-Tet electronica fame), Adem Ilhan and a chap called Sam Jeffers on the drums: old school friends, now superstars of British indie, folk and electro. They are releasing their first album in over 5 years.

Fridge squelch through a 2:47 jam that reveals maturity of their musical awareness, whilst maintaining the personality that could only develop in teenage years. It has innocence and power in equal measure, like an immature gas giant trying to out manoeuvre a black hole that has absolutely no forgiveness. But of course, this track only gives you a brief introduction to uncomplicated Fridge, a first glimpse, the experimental, grandiose and complicated world of Fridge is not to be put in a box and sealed with generic constraint, our three heroes of this musical world have many skills, rocking it instrumentally is but one of them. Just don’t call them folk-tronica. This track is taken from Fridge’s album “The Sun” which is released on June 19th. Here the full range @
