ROUGH ODDS (BLACK VINYL LP) - FISCHER KING

"Rough Odds," the full-length EP from Fischer King, is available exclusively on our online store. 
 
Los Angeles based producer and composer Fischer King creates pitch-black alternative pop, with influences ranging from James Blake and Nine Inch Nails to Claude Debussy and Herbie Hancock.
 
As a child, he forged an early love for tense, bombastic classical music before diving headfirst into the punk rock and hip hop scenes that surrounded him in Detroit. After moving to LA in his early 20's, Fischer has spent years working behind the glass for a host of artists, producers, and directors, constantly absorbing inspiration and refining a musical identity.
 
Released in the fall of a chaotic 2020, his debut self-titled, self-produced EP epitomized what he calls "existential crisis pop": familiar pop mechanics wrapped up in a claustrophobic package, and lyrically preoccupied with self-deception, addiction and a search for purpose. He has since continued to expand the emotional and sonic depth of that concept, further developing a cinematic, angular musical universe.
