'Fitzcarraldo' is the sixth studio album by the Irish rock band The Frames, founded by lead singer Glen Hansard. Released in 1995, the album marked a significant departure from the band's earlier work, with a more experimental sound that blended rock, folk, and experimental elements. The album takes its name from the Werner Herzog film of the same name, which tells the story of a man who attempts to build an opera house in the Amazon jungle. This theme of ambition and perseverance in the face of adversity runs throughout the album, as frontman Glen Hansard explores themes of love, loss, and the human experience. Overall, 'Fitzcarraldo' is a powerful and deeply personal album that showcases The Frames at their most ambitious and experimental. With its diverse range of sounds and emotions, the album remains a fan favourite and a landmark in the Irish rock canon.
