Fridge return to US promoting expanded re-issue
10 April 2002

London acoustronica/leftfield trio Fridge, led by Kieran Hebden (also in Four Tet), begin a two week midwest/west US tour on Friday. They’re supporting a greatly expanded reissue of their 1999 album Eph—which is also the first edition released domestically Stateside.
    (Last time in the US, in early October 2001, the band had all their equipment stolen from their van in Arlington, Massachusetts—on the morning of the start of the tour.)
    The new version of Eph includes a second CD with rare or out-of-print bonus tracks along with a previously unreleased remix by Patrick Pulsinger—the guy who, with Mario Neuegebauer, recently co-produced the excellently strange Only Tonight debut LP by Louie Austen. The new edition of Eph also contains a previously unreleased remix by Matthew Herbert.
    The album comes out for the US on 7 May as a co-release between Baltimore, Maryland based indie Temporary Residence and rock music info site Brainwashed.com.
    Joining Fridge on all their US dates will be Austin, Texas post-rock instrumental act Explosions In The Sky. The shows are
