Rebound
“On her fourth solo album, Eleanor Friedberger embraces ’80s goth pop and explores a newly fragmented internal landscape as a post-election expat in Greece.”
Personal Record
“Eleanor Friedberger's second solo album, which she co-wrote with alt-folk singer/novelist John Wesley Harding, feels like a travelogue of the mind. Personal Record is jam-packed with clever wordplay and fleeting emotions, but the tight, buoyant pop arrangements keep it from getting bogged down.”
Last Summer
“The Fiery Furnaces singer's solo debut feels like a throwback to idiosyncratic, solidly crafted singer-songwriter LPs from the 1970s.”
New View
“Eleanor Friedberger's solo music has long made New York City its stage, but she moved to upstate New York to write her third solo album New View. The record’s no-fuss, featherlight acoustic pop songs weave into one another seamlessly, Friedberger’s melodies familiar and redolent of artists like Harry Nilsson and Neil Young without playing like nostalgia.”
Personal Record
“Listening to the classic-rock jigsaw puzzles Eleanor Friedberger and her brother Matthew create in the Fiery Furnaces can be difficult work. As a solo artist, she's more approachable. Her second LP is full of crisp, jangly indie pop that can suggest Harry Nilsson or a bookish early Stones, and it's packed with stories of young people too mopey and absent-minded to realize the person across the bar”
Rebound
“Eleanor Friedberger snaps back against her own back catalogue with the electro-charged Rebound”
