Recorded live in the studio, "The Cost" is easily the Frames best record to date. Armed with some of the best songs they've ever written, the band set out to capture the legendary passion and dynamics of their concerts and they have fully succeeded.
Delicate folk melodies weave through blasts of big guitars and artful noise to cinematic effect.
From the Dublin Sunday Tribune:
"The familiar themes of desperation, tainted hope and rudderlessness drive the songs, particularly 'People Get Ready', to something of epic proportions. Their best record to date, by some distance."
