Fat Freddy's Drop avoids sophomore slump and delivers perfec
W. A. Moore | New Zealand | 11/18/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Already a highly influential and established band in their home country of New Zealand, Fat Freddy's Drop are back with their second release. Their first album "Based on a True Story" (also highly recommended) went multi-platinum and is regarded as one of the country's best releases of the past 20 years. Why is that exactly? Their genre bending music is so diverse and well executed it's hard to put words to it. Soulful vocals over slow horns and moderated drum and bass techno beats with a heavy reggae influence?? It's really something that has to be heard. Sound spaces and textures on this disc will set any mood. While the 11 minute masterpiece that is "Shiverman" will show you what drum and bass music is capable of, the soulful tunes like "The Camel" and "Boondigga" will bring you back to a sonic nirvana, with slow horns and soulful jazz stylings to boot. I think it's just a matter of time before this band explodes in the U.S. If you are looking for something new and totally original, look no further."
Supreme Beauty of an Album

"I already reviewed this under the "import" heading, but the first review there trolled it by giving it one star (?!). Just thought I'd get on board here where the reviews have been started off with a much more worthy rating. I don't give 5 stars lightly, but with this album it's more than applicable. Why these guys aren't more well known is a mystery to me as they certainly deserve it and we could definitely use the positive message their music delivers, which seems to be an ever increasing rarity these days. Plus the music is simply brilliant. Please don't wait another 4 years for your next release guys! Hope to hear more sooner than later!"
