Ugh... I wish he was still with us. Come out from under our covers Put on your clothes We're both sinking tonight Forever it goes After somebody hammers Emergency glass Sing in key with the sirens It hurts so bad As the salt water gushes Into our ship's holes Don't you dare jump without me I'm not good on my own Oh you're not leaving this wreck We're both going down with it There is peace beyond trouble I'm desperate to meet you Below the blue surface In a quiet reprise We're too poor to be precious So cut off your nose And come dying with me darling In the bed of the ocean's Great tank of disaster It wrecks who it pleases The swell pulls me under Come under with me Oh you're not leaving this wreck We're both going down with it Oh you're not leaving this wreck We're both going down with it Oh you're not leaving this wreck I've got pills in my pocket |

My daughter is 16 and has just recently gotten right into FR. It's been kind of bittersweet talking with her about the songs she likes and why (her fave is Keep Yourself Warm), but the hardest part was the discussion about Scott's suicide as she didn't know what had happened. Like I said, bittersweet. |

Oh boy. This is hard. But a lot of healing in it. BBC radio did a radio documentary on Scott and Frightened Rabbit. Give it your full attention. *not at work or on public transport. You will cry. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0009zby |

Hearing Grant talk about Scott's anxiety/depression was sobering and hell honest: Interviewer: "When did you start to notice the anxiety?" Grant: (with some difficulty) "You know this is something that I've thought a lot about. I...haven't suffered from anxiety or depression in the same way at all as he...did, so it was always hard for me to understand... It and to see it as more than just a bad day, or feeling sad, or feeling down, and I think that's quite a big problem...beyond Scott and its a wider issue that's quite hard to understand" ... I think my wife must be cutting up onions in the kitchen or something. |

It’s a tough listen but could and should be played everywhere. So hate to hear this perspective and while addressing Scott’s own perspective and choice it leaves you with a clear message Go write a song. Fuck what they say. Try keep Moving on. Don’t leave us. You’re treasured. This band and that man are woefully under appreciated |

Must be something about that song for me this week - U2 played it over the PA as the last song before they started up on Wednesday night, sounded like it was their usual go to song at concerts before they kick off. And here it is again. |

been listening to mastersystem 'dance music' lately. really good album, hadn't listened to it before. it's super dense sounding and apparently the drum sound was meant to sound like dave grohl's on 'in utero'. |

I've probably listened to FR more than any other band the past year. The bangers on Sing the Greys and the songwriting on The Winter of Mixed Drinks are underrated, IMO. Probably in the minority here, but besides the first two tracks on Pedestrian Verse, the album is pretty forgettable for me. For Higgs: 01 The Modern Leper 02 Fast Blood 03 Square 9 04 Footshooter 05 Keep Yourself Warm 06 The Wrestle 07 Things 08 The Greys 09 Death Dream 10 My Backwards Walk |

Quote: The tenth track on Big Red Machine’s second album How Long Do You Think It’s Gonna Last? was inspired by, and takes it’s name from the late Frightened Rabbit frontman Scott Hutchison who was a friend of Dessner’s. Quote: Aaron Dessner: I wrote a sketch inspired by my friend Scott Hutchison from Frightened Rabbit, who passed away. It’s this dark, kind of spiritual, kind of gothic piano piece. I’d produced the last Frightened Rabbit record, and it was just very shocking. He’s not the first friend I’ve lost that way, but it’s just really hard, obviously, and sad. You wonder how did it get so bad, or did I check in enough, or did I miss signs, or did I not take it seriously enough? That was the sentiment, but we wanted it to feel cathartic and have this heavenly lift to it. Lisa Hannigan and Sharon Van Etten and Shara Nova sing so beautifully on it. They added their parts and really lifted it like this angelic choir almost. —via Apple Music Quote: And if I could I would pick you back up to the top

Weird thing happened to me on Saturday. I hadn't listened to Frabbit in a bit so threw on a mixer of theirs I have as I was driving about the place running errands all morning. I was cranking the tunes and fully into it, windows down, singing along. It was really kinda cathartic, and I can't really tell you why. That evening I was scrolling through Reddit and came across the Frabbit sub and turns out it was Scott's birthday that very day. And a user had generously put up a big ass collection of rarities that I grabbed straight away - listening through at work this morning. Here's an interview from a year after Scott passed that I'd not previously read: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2019/jun/21/his-memory-shouldnt-be-shrouded-in-darkness-how-frightened-rabbit-coped-with-the-death-of-scott-hutchison And here's Mogwai's remix of Mastersystem's "Old Team" for something a little different: Years later and I still tear up whenever I listen to this stuff. |

"The Work" is a book of Scott's words and lyrics that was released mid November. I had no idea about it at all and so totally missed any presale or whatever and can't seem to find it available anywhere now. On the publisher's site you could click to be notified if it comes back into print, so I did, and yesterday morning I woke to an email telling me it was indeed back. I went straight there but sadly it was already sold out again. Curse you southern hemisphere time differences! But then on a brighter note I saw a Reddit post about the brand new 2022 re-release of The Midnight Organ Fight on vinyl just announced! Jumped on Bandcamp and snagged it straight away. I love that album. |
