The Frames Artist Snapshot:

Irish fans have devoured the passionate folk-pop stylings of Dublin's the Frames since 1990, witnessing as their music transformed from brash but literate indie-folk to a sparser and more experimental brand of introspection. But U.S. audiences may be more familiar with the outfit's charming lead vocalist Glen Hansard, who has starred in two beloved music-oriented films, 1991's THE COMMITMENTS and the 2006 hit ONCE. The latter film, directed by their former bass player John Carney, featured original music by Hansard and the Frames. The movie's popularity helped to boost the Stateside exposure and sales of the band's 2006 album, THE COST, arguably their most mature and accomplished work. That the album was recorded almost completely live in the studio attests to the long-standing ensemble's remarkable rapport.

Product note

The Frames: Glen Hansard (guitar, vocals); David Odlum (guitar); Colm Mac Con Iomaire (violin); Graham Downey (bass); Paul Brennan (drums).
Engineers: Steve Fitzmaurice, Tom Elmhurst, Ivan Oshea.
Because ANOTHER LOVE SONG, The Frames' first album, has traditionally been difficult to find, FITZCARRALDO has been the go-to document for the long-running Dublin band's early sound. Actually, it's not all that different from the punchy, emotional rock sound that would define them for over a decade following. Led by the passionate and fearless Glen Hansard, The Frames always remain listenable while liberally pouring out their every embarrassing emotion; the deft violin, cello, and keys that flesh out the songs help prevent too much confessional melodrama. Hansard is a belter, but his earnest vulnerability on songs like "Giving It All Away" draws an empathetic response anyway. "Revelate," a statement of purpose as deeply felt as the best of U2's early singles, would justifiably come to be a live fan favorite.
