\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

J\u2019imagine qu\u2019il n\u2019est plus besoin aujourd\u2019hui de vous pr\u00e9senter le groupe norv\u00e9gien Gazpacho propuls\u00e9 sur le devant de la sc\u00e8ne par Marillion en 2004.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gazpacho a toujours \u00e9t\u00e9 un mouton noir dans la mouvance progressive avec la voix si particuli\u00e8re de Jan-Henrik et les m\u00e9lodies tr\u00e8s intrigantes des musiciens. Souvenez-vous des albums Night ou Tick Tock pour n\u2019en citer que deux.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je crois que nous avons tous \u00e9t\u00e9 surpris par le single \u2018We Are Strangers\u2019 sorti le 16 octobre dernier. Cela ne m\u2019a pas emp\u00each\u00e9 de commander leur dernier disque Magic 8 Ball, car si mes d\u00e9buts avec le groupe n\u2019ont pas \u00e9t\u00e9 des plus simples, depuis March of Ghosts, je suis un inconditionnel du groupe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J\u2019imagine que certains fans int\u00e9gristes ont \u00e9t\u00e9 traumatis\u00e9s par la sortie de leur dernier opus, car Gazpacho a clairement d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de sortir des sentiers battus et rebattus depuis 2002. Mais ne prenez pas peur, vous allez retrouver souvent la forme traditionnelle du groupe dans leur dernier album.\u00a0N’emp\u00eache, assez r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement, de petites touches plus mainstream, des bizarreries inattendues, viendront troubler le fan de la premi\u00e8re heure.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Si \u2018Starling\u2019 ne devrait pas vous surprendre m\u00eame s\u2019il s\u2019agit le titre le plus long de l\u2019album, jouant de piano, de violon, de m\u00e9lancolie et de cette voix si particuli\u00e8re, \u2018We Are Strangers\u2019 va mettre \u00e0 rude \u00e9preuve vos convictions. Chant vocod\u00e9, touches \u00e9lectros, refrain commercial, batterie nerveuse, difficile de reconna\u00eetre au premier abord les norv\u00e9giens dans cet OVNI. Il n\u2019y a que le chant de Jan Henrik auquel se raccrocher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paradoxalement, j\u2019adore !\u00a0Sans doute parce que j\u2019aime mes prises de risque.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Et \u2018We Are Strangers\u2019 n\u2019est pas l\u2019exception, m\u00eame si les morceaux qui suivent apportent leur quota de nouveaut\u00e9 de mani\u00e8re nettement moins frontale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C\u2019est une guitare, des claviers, une mani\u00e8re de chanter, une \u00e9criture plus commerciale, qui vont troubler l\u2019ordre \u00e9tabli. Il y a par exemple un passage de basse\/batterie au milieu de \u2018Gingerbread men\u2019 que l\u2019on ne voit pas arriver et qui laisse place \u00e0 une continuation tr\u00e8s marillionesque \u00e0 la mani\u00e8re du titre \u2018Montreal\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Difficile d\u2019ignorer le \u20188-Ball\u2019 tr\u00e8s Bouglione o\u00f9 Jan-Henrik descend de presque une octave, dans un registre que je ne lui connaissais pas et qui lui va tr\u00e8s bien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enfin, que dire du dernier titre intitul\u00e9 \u2018Unrisen\u2019 construit d\u2019une multitude de sonorit\u00e9s \u00e9tonnantes tout en conservant une tr\u00e8s grande coh\u00e9rence ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alors oui l\u2019album Magic 8 Ball va vous d\u00e9stabiliser lors des premi\u00e8res \u00e9coutes, mais c\u2019est pour mieux se faire appr\u00e9cier. Petit \u00e0 petit, toutes les \u00e9tranget\u00e9s s\u2019estompent pour devenir la norme.\u00a0Plus vous avancerez dans sa d\u00e9couverte, plus vous tomberez sur des p\u00e9pites cach\u00e9es dans les m\u00e9lodies et plus vous aimerez cet album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Il rentre \u00e9videmment dans mon top 2025 et je vous invite \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9couter d\u2019urgence si ce n\u2019est pas encore fait.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
