Frida Hyvönen - Silence Is Wild - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

About this product
Her first album in over two years, coming after her acclaimed debut, UNTIL DEATH COMES. Whereas that was lean and percussive with her distinctive oompah-styled piano and direct lyrics, SILENCE IS WILD stretches her voice across rich arrangements of piano, strings, choirs, and synthesizers. Appropriate touchstones include Carole King, Jerry Lee Lewis, Plush, and Antony And the Johnsons. Lyrically, however, Hyvonen forges her own stylistic path, blending the confessional with the fictional; mixing wit with a sexuality that shifts from the refined to the raw, using language that dances between the timeless and the contemporary, and referencing high art and pop culture in a transcendent manner.

Sweden's Hyvonen is a talented piano- based songwriter in the vein of Laura Nyro with a passionate bite and a voice like an icicle that cuts deep. This debut features a raw home-recording feel not dissimilar to the Stones InchBeggar's BanquetInch, Joni Mitchell's InchBlueInch or Carole King's InchTapestryInch.

Three years ago I dug up the original tapes for Maybe We're Making God Sad and Lonely and had them remixed/remastered as we had zero budget for mixing when the album was originally recorded. We decided to this new version as MAY YOU DIE WELL which was the original title. It was changed to MWMGSAL after hiring artist William Schaff to produce a cover for us. He titled his artwork MWMGSAL and we thought that was a better title so we went with it. For this new version though we've commissioned new artwork by Chloe Manon and are using the original title. The mixing by Nick Bassett really makes these old tunes come to life and it's amazing to finally hear this album the way it always should've been heard.
