Additional information


Despite the solo albums The Fiery Furnaces will continue releasing new material as a group. When asked by Pitchfork about the reason for them being recorded/released separately Matthew, who writes most of the music and lyrics for The Fiery Furnaces responded with:
"Eleanor's on vacation, We have a logjam of records, so [this is] the only way to have something come out relatively quickly. And I don't have to bother Eleanor to get her to sing all this crap, so...that's the advantage. It's an act of mercy."[1]
Winter Women is also stated in the liner notes as being dedicated to Eleanor.
While Winter Women is a more conventional collection of songs, the second record Holy Ghost Language School is a narrative-based concept album, although it has significantly fewer lyrics.
Matthew Friedberger played the majority of the instruments on the records and did most of the production work but John McEntire from Tortoise and Josh Johannpeter from Mahjongg helped out by providing some of the non-synthesized drums.
