Fetch the Bolt Cutters is the fifth studio album by American singer-songwriter Fiona Apple. It was released on April 17, 2020, Apple's first release since The Idler Wheel... in 2012. The album was recorded from 2015 to 2020, largely at Apple's home in Venice, Los Angeles. It was produced and performed by Apple alongside percussionist Amy Aileen Wood, bassist Sebastian Steinberg, and multi-instrumentalist Davíd Garza. GarageBand was used for much of this recording, and Fiona Apple attributes the album's unedited vocals and long takes to her lack of expertise with the program. Rooted in experimentation, the album is dominated by unconventional percussion including the use of found objects not originally intended as instruments. Apple described the result as "percussion orchestras". These industrial-like rhythms are contrasted against traditional melodies and some conventional instruments such as piano, and the upbeat songs often subvert traditional pop structures. The album explores freedom from oppression; Apple identified its core message as: "Fetch the fucking bolt cutters and get yourself out of the situation you're in".
