BODIES OF WATER - LULESHTRYDHE FREAK



















UJE DO TE THOTE JETE.
I ashtuquajturi ‘album i maturimit’ (A Certain Feeling, 2008) eshte nje koncept qe mund te trembe edhe muzikantet me te trajnuar.
Muzika i pershtatet ne menyre te perkryer nje gjendjeje elegante te brendshme, racionale e te shendoshe emocionale. Flauti, organo e kitare kontribuojne harmonikisht per te ndertuar njelloj mikroklime qe i apelohet psikedelise se fillimviteve ’70 (Mamas and Papas, Jefferson Airplane etj).
Tingulli i tyre eshte me kaq te panumerta referime saqe te shkundin me larmine e kendshme dhe sidomos me ‘jeten e dyte’ te papritur te cdo gjurme deri ne fund.

















Zeri si instrument perben rregullin e arte (‘Water Here’).
Bujaria e marreveshjeve orkestrale fton per melodi klasike, te mira per veshin. Edhe pse me plot variacione nervore, mirepret intimitetin me naiv. Nuk fshehin elemente teatral ne kompozime!
Ndjenjat ne proces, horizonte te hapura (gjurme-perla nga freak, balada, folk, psych-rock: 'One Hand Loves the Other') per te qendruar heterogjene dhe per te ruajtuar njekohesisht vlerat e nje koncept-pop-i bashkekohor, nganjehere edhe kompleks.
Dhe ne i ndjekim, si te ishin nje karavan.

















Me siguri edhe nje indie-ungjill per muzikante qe nuk duan te perfundojne neper kopertina shume-ngjyreshe cdo fundmuaji.
Te nenvleresuar!

SINCERE MELODRAMA OF MUSICAL THEATRE
For only four people, they create a choir of voices ('Under The Pines'), filling the small venue with waves of beautiful sound. Their songs are long and meandering, switching time signatures several times before ending, but it never gets tedious; instead, you feel like you're accompanying them on a journey that no one has mapped out yet, but is bound to be filled with serendipity and wonder.

SUUNS [IMAGES DU FUTUR, 2013]

MUSIC WON'T SAVE YOU
I know what we’re about and I know what we’re doing. And this album is a development on what we’re doing. And if I didn’t think that we were going to develop more in the future and that the next album after that was going to change from what we doing than I don’t think we’d do it all. And I can see the band shifting all the time, and incorporating different things and I am sure that in the future we’ll be a very different sounding band. I hope that’s a good thing. I think it’s exciting'.
...
Look away, away from the light
I’m not trying, trying to lie
I hear your man immitate a song
Yeah music won’t save you.

MINOR WORK
'We have an unwritten rule that we don’t use computers because that could potentially be a rabbit hole we couldn’t get out of. The live show is the best part of the job so it’s important that it’s tight and that we’re all feeling good about it'.
