Nesles - Krank (2009)
Before even drag the album from the platinum one is taken from a terrible fear: a concept album, right? Ouch ... in French as well? The worst is expected. "What else happens when we do longer believes in God? "and closes the intro plunging even further the listener into an abyss of perplexity. But who is this man? A new incarnation of Manset? OF Higelin? Or probably even more of Willie Nelson? No chance, at last these 3 there are still among us. But as soon as the second one can not help but think of them. So with sponsors such trust develops gradually and it hangs a little bit by the story that is told here and I am not going to summarize for you to give you the pleasure of surprise and discovery.
It catches more than its atmosphere was different every time and always beautifully planted the soundtrack accompanying the story is a model of its kind, far from gainsbourgiennes rehash that are often right with such projects. On rhythmic electros often come to rest like brasses and strings on the beautiful Insomniac (Or how to fight psychopomps) and force other sounds more or less authenticated that continue to keep the ear alert.
On a purely musical risk-taking is clear and consistent throughout the album to the risk of confusing the listener not familiar with the album (brave heart) and even after several plays it is sometimes surprises a "bear" some passages quite original ... to arrive, finally, the next most immediately catchy.
With its melancholic guitars reminiscent of a silky cross between radiohead and madrugada Under the cortex and its final while copper is found to be without doubt the chief work of this album alongside some UFOs Funis ambulare as destabilizing or "taking" very was the first successful gnosienne Satie Nocturne on the garden.
It takes more than one listen to understand the history of Krank, see all the subtleties, those who give away the penalty will be part of the happy fews who know that there are still composers and poets in the true sense of the term, Nesles in fact indisputably party. We can not however blame to those who, baffled by the length of the disc, its constant changes, melodies and not always immediate fire rating of this type of project, those therefore who have left during Krank road vowing that never again can not resume them.
