By Kyle Lemmon
Fever Ray's self-titled debut has been out since March but it will continue leaving us creepy monochromatic presents well into fall. The Knife's Karin Dreijer Andersson is releasing her album's fourth(!) single, "Seven," on 12-inch and digital formats on October 5th in the U.K., courtesy of Rabid/Cooperative. (No word yet from Fever Ray's publicist on a U.S. release date.) Also, Fever Ray is getting one of those insta-reissues that everyone is clamoring for this year. More

Coachella 2010 Day One Report - Yeasayer, Grizzly Bear, Fever Ray, LCD Soundsystem, and more
Apr 17, 2010
By Mark Redfern
Coachella 2010 began under the cloud of an erupting volcano. Several of the European artists playing this year had to cancel their Coachella appearances due to the Icelandic volcano eruption grounding all flights from the U.K. and other parts of Europe. So day one of Coachella was greeted with the news that we wouldn't be seeing Frightened Rabbit, Delphic, The Cribs (with Johnny Marr), or Gary Numan after all. And only a few days earlier Mew had already cancelled due to illness. So this year's festival was already starting with some losses, Mew and Delphic probably being the most unfortunate ones. But while there were few artists playing Coachella 2010 who I both hadn't seen before and was dying to see (Pavement being one of them), the lineup was still rigged with enough great artists so that I had little time to eat and take breaks between bands. Here's what I saw during day one. More
Coachella 2010 Day 1 Recap: Sleigh Bells, Yeasayer, Passion Pit, Grizzly Bear, and Fever Ray
Apr 17, 2010
By Laura Studarus
Confession: despite my various musical exploits, this is my first year at Coachella. And in spite of various friends' threats to paint a "V" on my forehead and subject me to an unspeakable hazing process (that's standard...right?), I spent the week leading up to the festivities feeling not unlike an over-sugared toddler on Christmas Eve. Day one's notable loot: Sleigh Bells, Yeasayer, Passion Pit, Grizzly Bear, and Fever Ray. More
Fever Ray at the Henry Fonda Theater, Hollywood, CA, October 7th, 2009

Some people go to horror movies. Me? I much prefer the ghostly music of Fever Ray (aka Karin Dreijer Andersson). Although, I'd be lying if I didn't admit by the time the curtain rose on the sold-out show, my heart wasn't pounding as hard as any virginal teen being chased by a chain-saw-wielding maniac. Having already passed into electro-Goth infamy with her band The Knife's artfully executed stage show, I suspect that might have been just the response Andersson was going for. More
