Founded in 2016 by Mathis Kolkoz, the project from Toulouse (France) presents today its fourth studio album BLAST, a sonic explosion that vigorously fuses New Wave and Post-Rock. Without gear of imperfection, aggressive basslines and chorused Cure-ish walls of guitars blend to create a unique soundscape, true to the band’s post-wave DNA. MEMORIA is the second album from Swiss cold-wave project Future Faces. In a synthetic, restless musical universe, it questions temporality and the consequences of a past action on the present and future. With a more nuanced instrumentation than the two previous releases, MEMORIA invites the listener on a contrasting introspective journey, moving from desolate minimalist climates to epic build-ups. In order to move on from a conceptual world and engage the audience, the album has been written in the same way as when the quartet builds a concert set-list; respecting the breaks, climaxes and outlets of a scenic musical narrative. |
