MUSIC MAES- TRO
BY SERGE OKEY
FONTAINES D. C. DOPAMINE CHAMBER Standard-bearers of indie rock since 2019, the band have pulled off another masterstroke. With this fifth album, set to throw open the doors of the stadiums, the quintet from Coolmore country moves away a little from the full-frontal sound of their early days to embrace a more new-wave sound, somewhere astride references such as Depeche Mode, Joy Division and The Cure. The change of direction is palpable at the start of the album, but old habits come back at a gallop, and what follows plunges happily back into the post-punk and noise-rock atmosphere of the Dublin poets, still carried by the deliciously languid voice of their frontman Grian Chatten. The aesthetic remains broadly dark and cold, but the dopamine chamber moves from twilight to a sunnier detour with the arrival of Rosalía, in a state of grace on“ Where is gone”, a sublime ballad Lana Del Rey would not have disowned. Along with“ Marianne”, it is the high point of this generation-defining album, as brilliant as it is chaotic.
CAMILLE THE SOUND OF MILK 1 hour 48 minutes. This triple album is a bit like the Anjou Loire Challenge, the great cross-country marathon of French jump racing. A marathon of a record, a family and musical fresco in the form of a countdown through adolescence, childhood and, finally, birth. The diary of a mother – Camille Dalmais in real life – at the heart of her happy little stable: her partner, the musician Clément Ducol, and their two children, Marius and Lila. A manifesto full of love, joy, commands, prayers and experiments. For this adventurer has no equal when it comes to daring musical, and above all vocal, sidesteps. For more than twenty years, her career has walked a tightrope, like a high-wire artist with deceptively rambling songs. On this ever-growing odyssey, her light soprano voice works wonders once again. Within a certain idea of French chanson, Camille is the leader of the pack, the madonna. An inimitable, vibrant and enchanting trip- tych. Best lapped up like a glass of milk.
