toytigers: The Midnight Organ Fight by Frightened Rabbit

This album… it’s like a punch to the soul, and it’s been with me for years. I think of it as an emotional landmark, especially during some of the most vulnerable moments in my life. The Midnight Organ Fight came to me when I needed to feel anything, and this album does not hold back. Scott Hutchison’s lyrics lay everything bare, exposing the darkest corners of heartbreak, mental health, and self-destruction. It’s not just an album about loss; it’s about survival, and in a way, it gave me the words I couldn’t find for myself. There’s a weird kind of comfort in how brutally honest it is—like it meets you in the trenches and sits with you there. Tracks like 'The Modern Leper' and 'Poke' feel like they were written for those nights when everything hurts but you can’t quite understand why. It’s raw but it’s also cathartic. This album has been a constant companion through my ups and downs. Scott's voice and those lyrics make you feel less alone in your darkest moments. It’s more than music; it’s a lifeline.
