Shrouds - Grimoire
What a positive and liberating flow: the old scribe waited for this album as one waits for days full of joy! And now the latter is well and truly in his veins. A killer work, a sweep that sweeps away so much of the approximation that has been coming out in recent months. Instead, the Californian band decides that it is the intelligence, commitment, study and quality of songs born to become a cave inside our minds that find form and place.
The musical genres present are a gothic rainbow, arms that allow the various currents to create space and make love, in a way where collectivity is the watchword.
The list includes: Post-Punk, Deathrock, Darkwave, the triad that kills the doubts, the false propensities for joy and that can and will still shock, as effect and not cause. A swarm of grievous notes that weigh down the breath and confirm that part of the United States capable of not denying its own DNA: it is a lament at the foot of sacredness, a mass without religion that condemns sins and saves sinners, in a truly astounding moral exercise.
The guitars abound with lamentations, they are swans screaming and flying in the vibrations of the bass, to slip into human disaster. The drumming is a boulder that crumbles nerves and shakes, shakes, shakes until it hurts. One must be predisposed to silence with this artistic design: the woman with the scythe has made a contract and these sonic oscillations are a splendid noose around our necks...
