History
Fizz came together in "a whirlwind of pure joy and escapism, inverting everything each artist knew about making music to produce an album with fun and a love of the craft at its core."[1][2]
The members are friends and fans of each other's work, having previously collaborated on individual projects.[3][4] Their debut studio album The Secret to Life was recorded over a two-week period[5] at Middle Farm Studios with Peter Miles.[6]
The Secret to Life was released on 27 October and peaked at position 31 on the UK Albums Chart.[7]
Musical style
The band's musical style has been described as psychedelic, maximalist, and theatrical, often drawing inspiration from influential artists of previous eras.[2][3][8][9] Their debut studio album, The Secret to Life, offers a diverse range of genres to “create a giddy, freewheeling pop sound”.[5] The track "Grand Finale" has been compared to Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody,"[8] while the track "You, Me, Lonely," has been compared to Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.Шаблон:Citation needed
In the production of The Secret to Life, the band bypassed many production tools commonly used in contemporary pop music and relied on real instruments and recording live takes of songs directly onto tape. This approach, as discussed in interviews, imparts a nostalgic quality reminiscent of the music of the 1960s and 1970s.[8][2]
