Friends, on the occasion of the new (and third!) Nosound of studio work, here's the review for Stefano Fasti published Music History:
The goal of the third album for Nosound is not only a natural progression in a course record, but this marks a change of pace that makes it seem like the Previous work in the studio far, far more than it actually is the distance in time spent.
the past two years by "Lightdark" (2007), the band has thickened experiences such as to accelerate the normal process of growth: a role in this was definitely played the match leader Giancarlo Erra with Tim Bowness (vocals and melodic soul of No-Man and owner of the label Burning Shed), but also the very nature of Erra, who guided him to not compromise away from the high professional standards he set for himself. The restocking the stable KScope was achievement a goal that a few years ago would have seemed just a dream.
But "A Sense Of Loss" is a dream come true: the band, stable in training (Erra, Paolo Martellacci, Alessandro Luci, Gigi Zito, Paul Vigliarolo), in addition to achieved a complete harmony sound has opened a string quartet of the graft (the Wooden Quartet, directed by Henry Razzicchia) that plays an important role in the resolution of songs: so far for any guitarist would have been impossible to avoid the temptation to a solo, Giancarlo demonstrates how you can manage to evade every rock cliché senza perdere un grammo di energia, di pathos, di totale pienezza. "A Sense Of Loss" non è un disco rock e neppure post-rock (come si dice da più parti): "A Sense Of Loss" è un disco denso, stratificato, dotato di una dimensione sonora profondissima, il cui impatto è notevole anche in brani in cui la chitarra elettrica non c’é affatto e in cui la batteria o è assente o ha un ruolo apparentemente marginale. E’ un poderoso autoritratto di un’anima dolente (appunto quella di Erra, compositore unico e suggeritore unico degli altri attori protagonisti del suo malinconico teatro sonoro), un’anima stavolta in grado di denudarsi interamente, per permettere ad ogni singolo brano di essere una rivelazione.
And every song makes its mark, in what could be an album themed on the posting (love, human) and the overcoming of it. The dominant view of his music evolves from the concept of refinement twilight of those No-Man, between ice and fire from the suggestions submitted by Sigur Ros, from slow emotional uprisings of Bark Psychosis, from deep roots like those of musical research paths opened by Brian Eno or David Sylvian. But these fleeting impressions that fade as soon as you are immersed in music. In the previous "Lightdark" there was already a "bridge" to "A Sense Of Loss" and this bridge si chiamava Kites. Da lì scaturisce tutto il senso del nuovo lavoro: ogni composizione corrisponde a uno stadio di evoluzione nella modalità di espressione del dolore. Una scultura musicale modellata attorno alla sofferenza.
Ogni traccia è dunque un solco impresso, fino alla lunga cavalcata finale (Winter Will Come), nella quale l’abbandono cantato, suonato, è assoluto, ineluttabile, definitivo. Ma necessario, come necessario è l’ascolto di "A Sense Of Loss". Un album distante da mode, che rifugge da qualsiasi facile inquadramento, nel momento in cui sembra messo a fuoco. Una unica avvertenza: il disco richiede l’ascolto Full and courage to tune their own emotional stories with those told, sung, played, not in an attempt to exorcise the ghosts, but the reality.
And there 's also a video available on Youtube: "Constant Contrast"
