Brine - Semi-pro (mp3)
More than three years ago I wrote a short and obscure post about Brine. Their new The necesssary links that make up, part one (extended play) EP is now downloadable for free through their label Harbour, sea. The band has kept its ability to write unusual music. Unsafe music, I would say. It actually makes me feel paranoid and anxious, even if I can not put a finger on the reason their songs give me the creeps.
Sure, Brine experiments more than the average bands. And yes, they are definitely not mainstream. They do not play pop music. No rock n' roll. Electro, then? Not that much. I guess they are just a band for people who like oppressive sound. And ambitious music. And a fascinating sonic atmosphere. Enter the void.
Pour mes compatriotes français
Il y a plus de trois ans, j'ai écrit un court billet obscure sur Brine. Leur nouvel EP intitulé The necesssary links that make up, part one (extended play) est disponible gratuitement sur le site de leur label Harbour, sea. Le groupe a su conserver sa capacité à composer une musique inhabituelle. De la musique malsaine, je dirais. Elle me rend parano et anxieux, même si je suis incapable de mettre le doigt sur le pourquoi du comment du machin bidule chouette. Je veux dire, elle me donne la chair de poule.
Bien-sûr, Brine expérimente davantage que 99% des groupes. Et oui, ils ne sont assurément pas grand public. Ils ne jouent pas de pop. No rock n' roll. De l'électro, alors ? Pas tant que ça. J'imagine qu'ils constituent juste un groupe pour ceux qui apprécient les sons oppressants. Et la musique ambitieuse. Et une atmosphère sonore fascinante. Enter the void.
