Fever Ray Latest News

Photo: Ian Arnold In one neat entry we combine the picks of KASMS and Penelope Edmund for their top artists of 2009. KASMS’ Top Ten (Myspace) Gummy Stumps - not sure where to start…probably with Gummy Stumps…god there are too many good bands this year (Myspace) Dorian Gay -……..new as well, they might make me feel like an old lady and the name might...
Fever Ray Our top records of 2009 countdown continues, with our favourite singles, albums and downloads of the year. We’re now at numbers 60-41. 60: Crystal Stilts: Love is a wave Excellent single on Slumberland, a reverb drenched indie Scott Walker fronting Echo & The Bunnymen at their most optimistic. Download love is a wave Check out Crystal Stilts on myspace 59:...
According to this, Sweden’s The Knife will post new material to Soundcloud "in the coming days," so keep an eye out for that. The new material may or may not be from their new collaboration with Mt. Sims and Planningtorock, the "Darwin-inspired electro-opera" Tomorrow, In a Year (preview that here). ****** elsewhere: Another ‘heavy pop’ demo from...
The second single off of Fever Ray’s endlessly relistenable self titled album finds itself a new home in video form. "When I Grow Up" may not have all the mystery as it’s older video sibling, but it’s still pretty fucking weird. Some young freak folk conjures the water spirits with a creepy dance and, obviously, there’s some gross perv who’s hypnotized by...

Fever Ray MP3s

Ghost Hunter, Fan Death - sounds like a whole lotta killing’s gone on around here recently, albeit in anything but cold blood. There’s an erotic heat to this remix of "Reunited" that draws you in even as your gut’s screaming at you to just get the hell out of there. I guess now I know what it feels like to be one of those spiders that cums then dies. Sounds Like...
  To be fair, this is more of an edit than a remix–the collapsing sounds of reversed hi-hats and kicks spread under the untainted zombie fog of the original. Appears on Bassnectar’s new LP, Cozza Frenzy, out October 27th.   _RLT.render('e8c797fb756964d4cc026084748538e8'); Fever Ray - When I Grow Up (Bassnectar Remix) Previously: Bassnectar - Cozza Frenzy...
L.A.’s Dum Dum Girls just posted a couple of new videos, both comprised of appropriately winsome vintage found footage, on her youtube channel. The first — for “Catholicked,” which is the song that made us fall in love with DDG in the first place — features some fitting home movies of a young girl getting, well, catholicked. The second clip is for an instantly...
This booming raindance exclusive (which premiered earlier this week via our new RCRD of The Day) comes courtesy of J-Wow of Buraka Som Sistema and transforms Fever Ray’s original occult appeal into a ghetto-tech electro ballad fit for for the stickiest of floors. Fever Ray, a.k.a. Karin Dreijer-Andersson of The Knife, just released her eponymous and worthy debut, marrying glossy...
I have been slowly warming up too Fever Ray despite the cold ritualistic vibe, which I at first tagged as phony and obsolete. But despite this false start, thanks to a number of remixers, I have been able to view Karin Dreijer Andersson’s haunting songs in a new light and am learning to embrace attributes of the music that were at first lost upon me. One of these valiant remixers is no...
