#10 on the 2012 Musical Bacon Calendar
State Hospital EP by Frightened Rabbit
I’m not going to write much about this EP. By now, as a reader of my writing, you’ve probably grown accustomed to my fanaticism about Frightened Rabbit. If you haven’t given them a listen because of me up to this point, then I don’t believe I can say anything more that will sway you to change your mind.
And besides, this is just a 5-song EP. A FUCKING BRILLIANT 5-song EP. The title song will also be part of their February 2013 full-length release, Pedestrian Verse, which will undoubtedly be on the 2013 Bacon Calendar. The band has yet to release an album that hasn’t blown me away.
Buy everything this band has ever created. That is all I ask.
