Our Take

Fruit Bats have returned with their latest offering, "The Pet Parade," and it's safe to say that this album is a delightful musical journey from start to finish.

From the moment you press play, you're immediately transported into a whimsical world of nostalgia and charm. Lead singer Eric D. Johnson's trademark vocals are as smooth as ever, effortlessly gliding over each track like butter on a warm crumpet.

The Pet Parade is a sonic feast for the ears, with catchy melodies and infectious hooks that will have you tapping your feet and humming along in no time. Tracks like "Cub Pilot" and "On the Avalon Stairs" showcase the band's ability to craft perfectly crafted indie-pop gems that are both catchy and heartfelt.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on this album. Tracks like "Gullwing Doors" and "Fifty Minute Hour" delve into darker, more introspective themes, adding depth and complexity to an otherwise frothy mix.

Overall, Fruit Bats have once again proven why they are considered indie royalty. The Pet Parade is a joyous, whimsical romp through a world of love, loss, and everything in between. So grab a cup of tea, sit back, and let the music wash over you like a warm British summer day. Cheers to Fruit Bats for delivering yet another stellar album.

About the artist

Fruit Bats

FRUIT BATS By the time FRUIT BATS hit the scene, the indie folk landscape was already saturated with bearded troubadours armed with nothing but an acoustic guitar and a heart full of feelings. But Eric D. Johnson, the mastermind behind this enigmatic project, brought something refreshingly different to the table. With a sound that effortlessly blends Americana, indie pop, and a touch of psychedelic whimsy, FRUIT BATS have carved out their own niche in the crowded music world. Johnson's distinctive vocals float effortlessly over lush arrangements, creating a sonic tapestry that is both comforting and exhilarating. Whether he's crooning about love lost, spiritual enlightenment, or the joys of a simple Sunday afternoon, there's an undeniable honesty to his songwriting that is hard to resist. But don't let the pastoral imagery fool you - FRUIT BATS aren't afraid to get a little weird. Their live shows are a testament to their playful spirit, featuring everything from impromptu cover songs to bizarre on-stage banter. Johnson's magnetic stage presence and quirky sense of humour make for an unforgettable concert experience that is equal parts intimate and absurd. With a discography that spans over two decades, FRUIT BATS have solidified their status as indie darlings and critical darlings alike. They may not be headlining arenas or topping the charts, but their music has a staying power that is undeniable. So whether you're a die-hard fan or a casual listener, it's time to hop on the FRUIT BATS bandwagon - trust us, you won't be disappointed.
