Description
Syko Friend, the solo project of LA-based musician and writer Sophie Weil, began in 2012 in Minneapolis on a Tascam 244 Porta - studio. It has evolved into electric folk music, featuring thunderous guitar riffs woven with whispered or howled poetry. Fontanelle, Syko Friend's second LP, is well - known due to her captivating live shows and DIY tours since 2014, taking her to farms, underground clubs, community centers, and basements across the US. This album, named after the soft spots on infants' heads, is open and vulnerable. It skeptically views utopia while yearning for love, communication, and free food. With clear and gentle vocals over the expansive guitar dirge, it sometimes reminds listeners of Body/Head's noise or Les Rallizes' avant - garde style, along with the lost folk charm of Sibylle Baier.
To enjoy Fontanelle, you can play it on your preferred music player, whether it's a phone, computer, or a high - end audio system. Put on some headphones for a more immersive experience. When listening, relax and let the music wash over you, allowing yourself to be carried away by the unique blend of electric folk and poetry. There aren't many strict 'dos and don'ts', but try to listen in a quiet environment to fully appreciate the details. As for maintenance, if you have a physical copy like a CD, keep it in a cool, dry place and handle it carefully to avoid scratches. For digital copies, make sure your storage device is secure and regularly backed up.
