Fever Ray shares new video and reside dates

Radical Romantics, Fever Ray’s first new album in five-plus years, is out as we speak on Rabid Data/[PIAS]. In conjunction, Karin Dreijer AKA Fever Ray unveils their arresting music video for album spotlight, “Even It Out.” A tribute to the campy universe of John Waters, the “Even It Out” video attracts affect from Susan Sontag and Divine’s portrayal of Daybreak Davenport in Waters’ cult basic film Feminine Hassle. Eager eyes will spot cameos from Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, who co-produced and carried out on “Even It Out,” in addition to the tune, “North.”

As described by the Wall Road Journal, “‘Even It Out’ has squelchy synths and the gentle sway of a new-wave ballad by Gary Numan while Karin sings with a pronounced sneer. The contemptuous phrasing suits the lyrical content, which is, strangely enough, a warning to a child who tormented the singer’s [kid]. ‘This is for Zacharias / Who bullied my kid in high school / There’s no room for you / And we know where you live.’ …it’s an odd subject for a pop song by a 47-year-old, but the result is thrilling.”

On this planet of Radical Romantics, which follows 2017’s acclaimed Plunge, Dreijer presents their wrestle with the parable of affection. As Pitchfork commented, “If Plunge beckoned you into the sex party, Radical Romantics traces the bewildered morning after. Its love songs, both jagged and glistening, deal less in the thrill of finding love and more in the work it takes to survive it.”

Fever Ray first began on Radical Romantics in fall 2019, working within the Stockholm studios constructed with brother and fellow The Knife member Olof Dreijer who finally joined in on engaged on the album. Different co-producers and performers embody the experimental artist and producer Vessel, Portuguese DJ and producer Nídia, Aasthma, and extra.
