2LP – Black Vinyl Originally released in 2014, “My Favourite Faded Fantasy” was Damien Rices first collection of new material in 8 years, co-produced by Rick Rubin, with sessions taking place between Iceland and Los Angeles. It’s a selection of songs which – says Damien are sung straight into the metaphorical mirror. Those reflections appear to shift & slide from the self-aware (It Takes A Lot To Know A Man) to the self-critical (see the barbed humour of The Greatest Bastard) & perhaps, to that place of moving forward (particularly the rousing uplift of Trusty & True). Its a lyrical push-&-pull effectively based on the idea of being yourself, which can be felt in the ambitious scope of Rices new material (the longest track clocks in at just under 10 minutes) but is also articulated into something more raw, heavy & focused.
