Fridge – The Sun (Text Records)

Fridge is now entering their second decade of placid post-rockery. Touchingly, the school friends from Putney still get together to make music despite all having gone on to achieve greater acclaim independently – Kieran Hebden with the vivid folktronica of Four Tet and his recent collaboration with Steve Reid; Adem with his campfire folk songs; and Sam Jeffers as a web design guru and aspiring international diplomat (believe it or not). Understandably, given the circumstances, The Sun (which is not a tribute to the supernova of our skies) is a CD that lacks urgency and focus. Indeed, a vibe of contented garden-shed tinkering eclipses the bleeding-edge, brain-mashing urgency of their past. But, even after all these years, Fridge’s skilled melodic skittering allows them to fashion a hazily golden dawn you’d be happy to wake up to.
