Frightened Rabbit
:: November 13, 2012 :: by Paige Winston
What I’ve found in my past times listening to Frightened Rabbit is nothing less than an emotion-filled jumble of clever lyricism and catchy riffs. State Hospital proves to be everything you’re used to as a seasoned fan while still finding something beautiful in every word professed.
The record begins with the title track that pulls you directly into an active portrayal of a broken home. The story seems to revolve around a single girl who’s “blood is thicker than concrete
forced to be brave she was, born into a grave.” The inherent sadness has an equally noticeable allure to it when listening.
forced to be brave she was, born into a grave.” The inherent sadness has an equally noticeable allure to it when listening.When you walk away from listening to State Hospital, it resonates with you on the same level as The Antlers album, Hospicedoes. It’s a tragic and beautiful album that holds its time of relevance.
