Summer/Fever (traditional Chinese: 夏/狂熱; simplified Chinese: 夏/狂热; pinyin: xìa/kūang rè) was released on September 11, 2009, and is the fifth full-length studio album by Taiwanese indie pop band Sodagreen. It is the second of the band's Vivaldi Project, a planned series of four albums representing the four seasons- spring, summer, autumn and winter respectively.

The recording of the album took place in London, England, at Strongroom Recording Studio, and the songs, mostly written by Sodagreen's lead singer Wu Tsing-Fong, contain Britpop elements and lyrical references to the supernatural, Faust, Madame Butterfly and the Greek god Dionysus. Dionysus is mentioned in three brief English prose passages between tracks, written by band drummer Shih Jyun-Wei and recited by studio engineer Dan McKinna.

The album includes Sodagreen's first Hokkien song, No Sleep (無眠), and earned the band one of its two nominations that year for Best Band at the 21st Golden Melody Awards.
