Frightened Rabbit’s ‘The Winter Of Mixed Drinks’

turns ten this year and in order to celebrate, FatCat

Records release an Anniversary edition of the LP.

Boasting Ice Blue vinyl, the Anniversary edition also

features a bonus 7” featuring two previously

unreleased live tracks, remixed and remastered for

this release.

 ‘The Winter Of Mixed Drinks’ was written over seven

weeks in the isolated but beautiful coastal town of

Crail in Fyfe, Scotland, following heavy touring in

support of the band’s second album ‘The Midnight

Organ Fight’. Drummer Grant Hutchison stated “the

location had a big impact on the songs. There’s

definitely a nautical theme to a lot of the tracks and

a feeling of testing yourself to the limit which the

sea plays a big part in.”

The album was primarily recorded at Castle Sound

Studios in Scotland, with additional recording and

production taking place at Tarquin Studios in

Connecticut, alongside their trusted producer Peter

Katis.

Upon release in March 2010, the album was greeted

with widespread critical acclaim, with Drowned in

Sound praising frontman Scott Hutchison,

describing his performance as having “the same

tremble in the voice, the same elegance in the guitar

tone, the same march of the Military Tattoo in the

rhythm - but a renewed purpose.”

The Fly also praised Scott, claiming him to be “one

of the most underrated voices in rock,” going

further stating, “what more could you possibly want

from Frightened Rabbit’s third album? They’re

hurling themselves fearlessly at the bright lights,

and coming back all the stronger for it.”

The Guardian praised the album’s “sharp”

songwriting, stating, “most of their songs - with

themes of escape, freedom and reinvention - have

huge impassioned choruses that are made to be

shouted from the nearest available mountain,”

whilst the NME maintained the album to be

“stunning” and further wrote “for every song of

heartache (‘Yes, I Would’) and self-loathing (‘The

Loneliness & The Scream’), there’s one of

redemption (‘FootShooter’) or hope (‘Swim Until You

Can’t See Land’). The album deviates from their

previous alt-folkish sensibilities: the fuzzed-up

shoegazing of ‘Things’ and the anthemic chorus of

‘Living In Colour’ herald an exciting new bullshit-

free dawn.”

This is an album that FatCat and all of those

involved in its creation are immensely proud of, as

relevant and striking today as it was upon first listen

back at the dawn of a new decade ten years ago.
