Comment: Go Ask Alice`s previous issue
Perfection Is Terrible was added to the list of the best
albums of 2017 at RMH. It was a blend of strong melodic lines and
guitar and synthesizer mixed intellectual soundscapes. Stylistically
something between post-punk, synth-rock, and krautrock. However, the
lines between the last named genres used to be almost invisible as
you have figured out already. And in fact what does it mean the vague
term “synth-rock”? All of that case was embraced within the whole
of a 28-minute with 8 tracks only.
Ten Little Dreams may be a
bit disorienting title because the whole clocks in at a 56 minute
with 10 tracks. Less guitars, more electronic washes to be added to
the melting pot. More dreamy reveries and elaborated progressions,
more sonic distances to provide a sophisticated dialogue between
blissful dreams, more steep rhythmic structures and hirsute yet
somehow atmospheric electric guitars. I would like to call it a
contemporary instance of prog-rock. The only exception is a track
called
sssun!, a pure disciple of motorik/krautrock music.
Similarly to the previous issue it is also issued as a part of the
discography of an Italy-based imprint, La bèl.
