Unreqvited - Mosaic II: la déteste et la détresse (2020) EN


How is it possible for a music to be at the same time "depressive & uplifting"? It's answered by the Canadian artist who makes music as Unreqvited. His very rich blackgaze was shown multiple times already, this time it's on this year's second part of his album Mosaic.

As could be expected from blackgaze, in the Canadian's music two natures collide: the aggression and depression of metal and epicness and hopefulness of the airy elements. The withdrawn, always inspired scream sounds like a choir of fallen angels and it's well accompanied by the walls of synths. For my taste there's sometimes too many those dad-rock guitar riffs but in the long run there's more post-metal noise here and I'm going to stick to that.

There are moments of rest, as in the piano keys-dominated first part of Disorder, but, as expected, it's mostly for the next fragments feel even more monumental and with even bigger grandeur. The artist himself writes that "this album now contains the ire, misery and anxiety in between, making it my darkest, most daring release to date", but it seems to me that there's still a lot of hope in the sound of the Canadian's music.
