Comment: imagine there would be such a kind of artist on the stage of Eurovision by poisoning the lousy taste of the present superficial audience. Hiss and microscopic noises coming through very huge loudspeakers would spread everywhere and conquering the senses of the audience on 120 decibels. This could be an apocalyptic, transcendental experience for them by indicating what would happen if they continue live a decayed life. Like standing face to face with the Grim Reaper who moves his scythe like an electric guitar and as a consequence cranking up the decibels. All would be bleeding – their ears, eyes and noses. Through pain and smell of blood they could experience majestic beauty of mixed machinery and lost humanity once generated by heroes. Indeed, this bunch of 9 notches is the ennobling chaos of a managed process. You can enjoy different sonic monoliths over there, at times more abstract, at times more emotions filled soundscapes. All of that sounds fairly in an elemental way. With regard to Portugal, it is the case indeed, because the artist comes out of Portugal and is a part of the discography of a Portuguese imprint, Enoughrecords. For sure, one of the most impressive and consistent and multi-layered issues in 2018 so far.

Comment: it`s Eurovision time, it`s time for a horrendous freak show time which reflects upon the fact of how declined is the culture of Europe at the moment. And it does not depend on condition is Jean Claude able to drink it more beautiful or less ugly (as you wish). For serious music fans the contest is the synonym of a bad taste and nightmarish balagan which the intention to taunt the nature of music. I can remember for the Eurovision precontest in Estonia in 2010 when Tiiu Kiik with a song called The One and Only – Love competed there but did not get a high place. However, it is a brilliant song and for sure it is not a place to throw pearls before the swines anymore. Dreamy atmosphere and otherworldly harmonies with the swaying singer did create a fascinating milieu. It can be said at Lend ja tants it is one of the highlights. In general, the 14-notch issue contains dream-soaked compositions though there are up some exceptions either. For instance, at Õhtupoolik one can hear post-punk and synth-wave induced electro-indie stomps. Great track. At Üle kuristiku you can hear suggestive bagpipes being embellished with peaky rhythms. In a word, enjoy the album with great flow.
