Now's The Only Time I Know

Fever Ray

Rabid/Cooperative

WE SAY

Fever Ray is the project of Karin Dreijer Andersson, one half of Swedish electro duo The Knife. Fever Ray's debut self-titled album comes out on The Knife's label Rabid Records though Cooperative in the UK. The album is a brooding, atmospheric collection which builds on The Knife's already eclectic sound. Leftfield and experimental in nature, it is a really hypnotic and engaging album. First single ‘If I Had A Heart’ (video) is out now in digital stores and released on 7" vinyl with remixes on January 26. JF
