“It was a bit scary at first because I hadn’t been working on my own for so many years,” says Karin of her new arrangements. “When I got used to it I had a small studio set up south of Stockholm. It was really interesting to go into my own ideas without compromising.”

“Amidt the labyrinth of barren dressing rooms that constitute the fifth floor of London’s Royal Festival Hall Karin Dreijer Andersson (aka the delectable anti-hero of this year, Fever Ray) sits soberly, cross-legged in the dark. Remarkably at ease for a debut UK gig and her fourth show ever under current moniker, the expansive corridors are lined with a veritable Scandinavian electro monarchy, from chart-battering princes and tonight’s headliners Röyksopp to edgy (fringed) Swedish starlet Robyn. The exclusivity of Ether Festival’s Saturday night fever merits a similar level of anticipation to the majority of this year’s summer weekends and with only a handful of dates lined up, Karin stripped down the tribal masks and face paint to talk touring phobia, Guns’n’Roses and a vital update on the future of The Knife.”

“What do you do as an artist when you have the world at your feet? The logical answer is to bang out another record and make hay whilst the sun shines. But Karin Dreijer Andersson, who along with sibling Olof Dreijer makes up much lauded Swedish duo The Knife, had other ideas. She decided to lock her self away and rebuild her home studio in the middle of deepest darkest winter. This is the story of Fever Ray…”

“The Knife’s Karin Dreijer Andersson’s solo project was always going to be something of note – how could that alien-like, trembling voice not produce excellent results? – but the direction it was to take was the source of mystery. Going to the darkest parts of The Knife’s musical palette was a sensible option indeed.”

“Nothing that Fever Ray does is as immediate or soaring as a track like “Marble House” but Fever Ray makes up for the lack of highs by being an even more all-enveloping experience than the last few Knife records.”
