Customer Reviews:

dark.......2006-04-02

This is a beautiful, but very dark, album by Bashung. The songs are excellent and the orchestration is superb (string orchestra + electronics + guitars by Marc Ribot and Arto Lindsay)

Brilliant.......2003-10-14

Well, you don't know that guy. Right? Americans maps on kid's rooms show only America. European maps show the whole world. That makes all the difference.
Bashung comes from the awful 80'. Bittesweet basic euro rock singer (Nena alike). More like Talk Talk in fact. And curiously, he followed the same way these guys did.
The result ? After being a "pop star" on the old Europe, Bashung gave birth to monsters like "play blessures", more far off than any "weird" american/english bands. He also made "Chatterton", more civilized but basically vicious. the rest is okay, but quite unbalanced.
Now he relaeses what is reckoned as a dark album. No dear goth, it's not a cure album. No self-indulgence, no pathetic post-adolescent pseudo-spleen (for a man around 45), no "I kill you". No fatalism too, just mature death album.

Sounds sometimes like Massive Attack, Holger Czuckay, Air, Talk Talk (laughing stock era), Robert Wyatt (Dondestan). Ah, yes, it could even sound as if Randy Newman instead of becoming an Warner Bros music rep, made depressive music.
Well, it would be best to know french to really appreciate the lyrics, but basically if you like Brel, Arno you'll like Bashung.
