Pedestrian Verse

Frightened Rabbit

A thundering, collaborative indie rock record that turns existential dread and social observation into massive, sky-reaching anthems.

It's the sound of a band finally finding their full power while the world falls apart around them.

A powerful, percussive surge of communal catharsis that finds beauty in the bleakest observations of human nature.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The massive, wall-of-sound explosion at the end of Acts of Man that sets a dark, cinematic tone for the record.

The desperate, rhythmic urgency of The Woodpile as the guitars interlock into a frantic, driving pulse.

The transition from the bleak, skeletal piano of Nitrous Gas into the self-deprecating, triumphant surge of The Oil Slick.
