My Review: Scenius - Chinese Room

 Scenius - Chinese Room

After the beautiful High Low that appeared in the compilation "ZEITGEIST+ Vol. 2", by the phenomenal Cold Transmission, the duo from Leeds is back with a new classy performance, a Synth Pop pill that welcomes mutations and influences, in a physical journey of strobe lights that make us dance with dark glasses, for a lyric that makes us enter a room and leave it with questions, like a gentle puzzle that enhances awareness. Words that have the bitter taste of dissatisfaction and bewilderment that are perfectly placed in the music, like a pair built to give more value to the whole. Here we are squeezed into a Chinese concrete structure, electrified and mystical, with the city's musical history beautifully summed up and amplified. Nothing to add: the English band is capable of illuminating existential malaise and transforming it into a splendid melancholic song...
