My Review: St. Jimi Sebastian Cricket Club - Soothing Nights


 St. Jimi Sebastian Cricket Club - Soothing Nights


There is a poem that flies through the air, it has no ink marks on its skin but vibrant notes on its back, in a contortion that sucks in the sky, embellishing, surprisingly, the luminous wake of a sleepless night. A song that in its poignant monotony reveals streams of beautiful committees of sadness, with the intention of exploring celestial space contemplating a dying star. It does not need to vary, except in the rhythm that increases, with the entry of the drums and an increasingly enveloping atmosphere, to combine the lyrics with a set of sound clusters that, like a liquid chasm, compact the universe of feelings.

How can one make farewell a party with drops of mountain rock sliding into the sea? Soothing Nights is written as grief governs every thrust that would like to make life a simple, impotent memory. There is in the rise of the rhythm a mode that we have come to admire with Belle and Sebastian, but in this case everything seems to meet a fate in which the absence of the song's breath will leave us in utter commotion….   The Swedish quintet explores a feather, the happenings of the passage of time, observing from a perspective that seems to be that of an autumnal cloud: everything is inclined to balance the nervous vein of a malaise to make it come alive under our gaze, which can be nothing more than a teary-eyed applause. Markus Hahn with his guitar brushes bubbles, Jimi Sebastian's guitar (who is also the band's vocalist) is the twin that reaffirms this vertiginous alchemy, and they are assisted by David Lindberg's nostalgic keyboard, Mats Skoglund's almost mute but essential bass and Fabian Ris Lundblad's simple but perfect drums, which is a caress that brings vivacity and order, to make this emotional avalanche a miracle: if it had room in your heart it would certainly smile...
