Kowalski n°3

Et bien voici...
Après des semaines d'attente, nous pouvons enfin commander le dernier opus de Kowalski.
Comme d'habitude des guitares sèches, des voix sèches également, et de la contrebasse.
Dans la lignée des autres albums ces chansons nous transportent dans un univers sombre et plaisant à la fois.
D'une grande maîtrise technique et avec des arrangements efficaces, A room for two risque fort de vous procurer un plaisir simple ou simplement du plaisir...
A room for Two

Mathieu K. a dit…

This morning, one guy came to me and asked: Who the hell is Kowalski ?

I answered: Well, Kowalski is four guys, and wooden instruments. Folk, you know, but different. /// These guys, they write songs in their room, like many before them, looking for a prayer never told, images from the deep attic of humanity. They do it seriously, they try hard. Because it’s important. There is a record out now, you should listen to it /// Kowalski is a space, rather dark, an inner space where there are voices invited. It’s a guest house in fact. With people you know -yes you already met them!- they are parts of you. Cause we’re made of people, INSIDE. It’s crowded. Unsatisfied or simple voices, they all gather near the bonfire. /// Kowalski’s songs, they’re made of characters, a bunch of lonesome and very quarrelsome heroes, smoking along the ancient road. /// All looking for a heart /// Kowalski is a tortured land, ‘cause hey, we need to feel the pain sometimes, a right way to be alive, to “feel” life /// But the songs are also soft, with tenderness inside. Pleines de fêlures. Those songs, they dressed for you.

I ended in that words :

And bare bone music is closest to beauty. Ageless music, related to some secret place where lies the essential. I dig it.
