Carmen Sea are from Paris and last autumn debuted with an album called HISS. Their rapid and surprising post-rock is bound to impress many fans of the genre, yours truly included.
The EP begins with a chaotic and extremely energetic sounds of Frames that suggest a lot of mathrock influences. However, what clearly is the first thing one notices, is the involvement of violin sounds - not ones that are supposed to generate mystical or depressive atmosphere but ones that are pure energy and fun, folk-style. And when they lead the heavy guitars in experimental compositions, it's beyond impressive. Especially that there's also a good quantity of electronic effects involved (almost dub step-like in some places) - the chaos that's generated this way brings energy and strength to dance and/or destroy things around. It's even more surprising when in the album's finishing track, the long Glow in Space, the violin gets suddenly very artsy, almost as if taken from The Irrepressibles' works, only to get back to the band's signature madness after a while. I love it.
