My Review: Haunt Me - All Things Turn Grey

 Haunt Me - All Things Turn Grey

Haunt Me are fertile, capable, unstoppable, a magnet that attracts the need to create satellites of vapour-filled notes, in a faithful sound circuit within Post-Punk that is married to the not too exuberant Gothic Rock, establishing a perfect harmony. Three episodes, a succession of quality, addictive frustration and pain that are here pampered by wisdom and the will to cherish it all for eternity. One finds oneself dancing, knowing that nothing will be the same as before: one dives into circular, almost archaic guitars and consequently loaded with references to which we are fond of. This is not a nostalgic operation: you can tell by the singing, the arrangements, the desire to anaesthetise certain clichés that might have made you tired. Instead, we find ourselves celebrating the harmony, the fluidity, the oil running through songs that arouse respect and curiosity. More down-to-earth than some over-celebrated bands of the 1980s, the American combo demonstrates balance and ponderation, for a total beam of gothic light that can warm the head towards stimulating thoughts...
