A Few Words on... Frightened Rabbit - Pedestrian Verse



Frightened Rabbit's major label debut isn't a sell-out nor a radical departure of sound that's made them one of the most enduring, underrated and consistent acts out there.

After the rather disappointing State Hospital EP, my expectations were lowered for Pedestrian Verse, but I should have known better. It's a superb album with brutally honest lyrics, excellent music and easily sits among Frightened Rabbit's previous albums of brilliance.

Whether it's storming opener Acts of Man, the surprisingly catchy Late March, Death March, the slow anthemic Nitrous Gas; the album delivers on all fronts as one of the better releases of 2013.

...And make sure you get the Deluxe Version; the three extra tracks are just as good as the vanilla release.

8/10
