Pedestrian Verse

 


2024 Charity Shop Purchases #3 - Frightened Rabbit - Pedestrian Verse

This week's Frightened Rabbit contribution again courtesy of CHS Bridge of Allan is Pedestrian Verse their 4th album from 2013 and their first on the Atlantic label.

It is the Deluxe version with three additional tracks plus a DVD with two films documenting the bands Scottish and US Tour. It goes for a tidy sum on Discogs

 It features increased songwriting contributions from each member of the band with the songs being written and practised while on tour. It was the first time that Scott Hutchison had shared songwriting duties leading him to conclude that it was the best record that the band had produced.

It was critically well received receiving a total of 79/100 on Metacritic based on 26 reviews. The Skinny  gives a track by track review of the album from Scott which saves me a lot of bother and which is obviously far more interesting.

I've gone for The Woodpile which was the second single from the album and the funky little fucker Oil Slick. I'm also throwing in one of the bonus tracks If You Were Me for good measure.

Stay tuned for the third and final instalment sometime next week
