Fixed::Context is a studio album by the Virginian post-rock band Labradford.[7] It was released in 2001 by Blast First and Kranky.[8]
Critical reception
The Guardian wrote that the songs are "all instrumental and all based around an echoey guitar effect that sounds like Duane Eddy playing the theme to Twin Peaks."[1] The Dallas Observer called the album "a patiently unfolding tapestry of forgotten memories and the subconscious pleasure of a mind set adrift."[9]
