The Midnight Organ Fight is the second studio album by Scottish indie rock band Frightened Rabbit. Recorded during 2007 between studios at Bridgeport, Connecticut and Glasgow, Scotland, the album was released on 14 April 2008 (15 April in the US) through independent label Fat Cat Records.[4] Hailed by critics as "one of the finest [breakup records] of recent vintage",[5] frontman Scott Hutchison has described the album as being "a lot more intense" than its predecessor Sing the Greys (2006).[6] Following the album's completion, it took around a month for him to be able to listen to it.[7] The album's title comes from a line in the song "Fast Blood", and is said to be a euphemism for sex.[8]
Upon its release, the album was greeted with widespread critical acclaim. Praise often centered on the writing, honest lyricism, and passionate delivery of the band. Viewed as a showpiece for modern Scottish music, the album has continued to receive recognition long after its release and has been featured on various year- and decade-end critic lists.[citation needed]
