Fever Ray: Radical Romantics [Mute]

Karin Dreijer’s third record as Fever Ray is “a more calm and peaceful album than the last one,” 2017’s Plunge, the outré pop maestro told Pitchfork’s Sasha Geffen in a recent feature. Dreijer’s brother and the Knife counterpart, Olof Dreijer, worked on several tracks, and Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross feature on “Even It Out,” which Dreijer said is about getting “revenge on your kid’s bully.” Relatively calm and peaceful, then, but still determinedly Fever Ray. Read that feature, “Fever Ray’s Voices of Desire,” and the track review of “What They Call Us.”
