Album Review: Girl With Fish by Feeble Little Horse
Excellent, Based on 3 Critics
Based on rating 9/10
"I know you want me, freak" is how Feeble Little Horse opens their sophomore album, Girl With Fish. It's an assured statement for a self-reliant band that splits the difference between fuzzed-out maximalists and earnest pop songsters. The Pennslyvania quartet knows exactly when and how to spike their songs with twee textures, disgusted lyrics, dreamy love songs, and noisy freakouts.
Based on rating 7/10
The first thing that you might hear about feeble little horse is the name of the band--funny, unserious, and a deeply 21st century level of lowercase. The second thing you'll hear about them is that they strongly rep the DIY indie music community of Pittsburgh. Sure, that's not special to feeble little horse. Plenty of indie rock artists emerge from their local scenes.
Opinion: Excellent
Photo by Micah E. Wood Girl with Fish by feeble little horse feeble little horse rolls the guitar noise like a surging tide, the notes bristling with so much static and distortion that becomes what they are. But the band's tender, vulnerable center is the singer Lydia Slocum, who refuses to be swept away, no matter how fast and hard the surf rushes in.
