Blood Moon Wedding - Spell
There are miracles of heaven that show their face by sticking inside a song, as a gesture of absolute value, because music can still be a message from the gods. And they have chosen two souls who live physically distant but absolutely intimate artistically, prompting them to write an intense, truthful song, pregnant with conscious particles to let us know that there is much to be done for those who want to inhabit life and its places. Mia Dean and Steve Lake's awareness swims with bitter lyrics and heavy music kept afloat by the melody of the American artist's singing that is truly sublime and light, almost close to the clouds, but then Zounds' leader, with his vocal part, brings the song back into our stomachs.
Something magical and cloudy sticks to our ears: these are sensory oscillations that seduce and penetrate the mind. This duo launch a determined attack on our weaknesses, but perhaps a song can actually be useful to understand our surroundings and to lead us to growth.
It is interesting to note that defining what you hear can certainly be of little use, but an attempt must be made.
Rock is dressed in the guitars of The Blue Aeroplanes of Jacket's Hangs with the roar of New Model Army, with the addition of a guitar solo that brings a post-punk modality capable of giving warm chills.
A back-and-forth between the two voices, between the two protagonists, and the story unfolds with this tense atmosphere that clings to us and refreshes the mind: we have a chance to listen to what will shape our thinking and it is one of the most beautiful gifts at the beginning of the year!
