Album Review: Frida - I Want In Your Head

Matt O'Neill
StarStarStarStar

"...Reminiscent of a psychedelic version of Nancy Sinatra's work with Lee Hazlewood."

This is a little bit special.

Melbournites Frida operate in a psychedelic space not entirely removed from mid-'00s The Flaming Lips or recent Tame Impala, but with something ever so slightly darker and more cinematic thrown into the mix. In a strange way, it's reminiscent of a psychedelic version of Nancy Sinatra's work with Lee Hazlewood. The various songs on the EP overflow with melody, texture and colour but, through both their writing and delivery, seem to maintain a streak of indefatigable cool. Highly recommended.
