/Modern classical, Piano music, Minimal, Post-classical/
Comment: Screws was recorded while Berlin,
Germany based musician Nils Frahm was recovering from a thumb injury. The album
includes volatile chord progressions and restrained motive developments played
on the piano. Indeed, those motives spawned over there used to surface and then
meander over lone landscapes and then disappear into nothing. It can say that
Frahm´s goal is not to reach some goal in a direct sense but just to move on
and provide moody impulses and moments. On the other side, the album`s sense
can be considered a successful equilibrium between silence and sound.
