Anna Calvi - s / t
I think it's a matter of redundancy and a little ' Prior to distrust, but I in the latest music, I find it hard to feel the pulse of the heart. Mind you, by no means one of those "ah, after 1979 in music has produced only shit, rock is dead and gone since then," indeed, I love this as much as possible and try to keep me a bit 'updated .
But when I listen to a recent disc, the first few times, it is very rare that it recognizes a soul shining, a sign that those notes and the sounds were produced with the heart and not just with the head (something for itself far from contemptible, at least in comparison to the third alternative: the wallet). I
that 50 years of rock have been explored so many directions by those who put music in front of an imperative dilemma: either to build on the creations of others, and thus become derivative, plagiarized, etc. have already heard, or browse for more new roads with the risk author to look for originality's sake.
way too many times recently I find myself listening to a disc to oscillate between these two poles, unable to get interested (in the etymological sense of the word) actually storing it and then after the play had to go back on promises to play a more settled.
But sometimes not. The album immediately struck me, is loved now, without hesitation. And
this is the case of this self-titled debut of English Anna Calvi.
10 tracks of music bleeding, but with the heart.
will be playing guitar in excellent way, leaving him the patina that only the bad and dirty guitar licks naked and without too many effects you can pull off.
will be his way of singing, deep and warm, is just as compelling and evokes only prominent references (PJ Harvey and Siouxsie all).
will the songs are not afraid to spill over into the labyrinth of dark fertile but a mournful rock (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds the beginning, Scott Walker, ...)
will, therefore, that the girl's risk of being accused of derivativismo (It is said to be so derivative?) Fuck it beautifully, and already felt like using the bank to lean first to spring on her own.
It will be, will be ... but this album is beautiful and if they hear about a bit 'too loud, as for those products too often ephemeral that so reek of hype, for once scrollatevi off that air of mistrust, and give him a better chance.
To me this is one of those albums that last.
