Les Cygnes Noirs, black swans, suits ŁŚ perfectly but not only because of the name. The band is magnificent in combining very different genres and in the end plays a post-rocking cabaret. Sounds as if Regina Spektor got very scared and started to listen to 65daysofstatic and play their covers. Plus lyrics I don’t understand as me and French treat each other with a dose of suspicion but it is clearly an important part of the compositions. I am not sure but it’s an academic guess.
The songs are played on heavy sounding piano and rhythmical drums which is the factor that changes perspective. A “normal” project with a lady behind a piano turns into something more, something deeper. And the lady mentioned has a low, poignant voice the sound of which suggests that the things sung are important and uncanny.
The album opens with a long “Dans tes pas” that is less cabaret and more post-rock track that is completely by chance played on piano keys. They are worth close listening to. Polish listeners can find “Le tren” interesting as its fragments sound like “Lewiwa” by Patrick the Pan but it also end abruptly as if the vocalist was chased by some musical demons. All the tunes by the French duo are pleasant to your ears. My attention was drawn to “Léo” - everyone that hears it will know why and “Pour toi” transforming into something between dark cabaret and military song. Not to mention the last track that is a typical post-rock song with a record of a monologue in a background. Like the whole album - amazes with ambiguity.
"UN" costs 8 EUR.
