Quatre ans nous séparent du dernier effort de KINGDOM COME, ou plutôt du maître à bord Lenny WOLF.
Nous ne prenons pas en compte ici Rendered Waters qui est une compilation de titres réenregistrés avec 2 nouvelles compositions et qui est sorti en 2011. Après Ain’t Crying For The Moon en 2006, qui voyait déjà se dessiner l’évolution musicale et artistique du sieur WOLF, avec des titres hallucinants de mélancolie et à la limite de l’expérimental, tout ce travail d’orfèvre en composition était magnifié (facile !) par le chef d’oeuvre Magnified en 2009. Il faut être vraiment épris de la façon de voir la musique de Lenny WOLF car il y avait dans ce disque tout un concept d’écriture et du génie musical car le bonhomme aux multiples ressources nous avait alors complètement fait chavirer ! Alors aujourd’hui avec Outlier, c’est la continuité dans le sens positif du terme, car l’Allemand sort toujours des sentiers commercialement battus pour nous inviter dans l’univers musical qu’il a créé. Le décrire c’est entrer dans une autre dimension où les ambiances, les riffs, les sonorités diverses avec une batterie qui telle un métronome huilé martèle sans cesse ces titres bourrés de feeling, avec de ci de là le délire propre au maître. Lenny WOLF possède cet art très naturel de pouvoir nous écrire des mélodies poignantes, finalement toujours rehaussées par un son quasi industriel ou teinté parfois de cette densité percutante, contrebalancée par la douceur et la mélancolie de sa voix si particulière. C’est une vraie prouesse ! Ecoutez cette intro de God Does Not Sing Our Song en détail : on en pâlit ! Avec toujours cette batterie hallucinante, entêtante, ces distorsions musicales parfois très typiques (Running High Distortion, Rough Ride Rallye), ces riffs dévastateurs où surgissent parfois des claviers venus de nulle part, pour enfin entendre la VOIX du maître : voilà en résumé ce que l’on peut affirmer sur ce Outlier de toute beauté. Il y a aussi ce titre énorme qu’est The Trap Is Alive, plus classique, dans la pleine mesure du tempérament à la base rock de KINGDOM COME : grosses guitares, rythme fou, avec encore cette batterie incroyablement énergique. Les mélancoliques Don’t Want You To Wait ou When Colors Break The Grey en sont aussi à citer, pour leurs sonorités très élaborées et du plus bel effet avec des claviers très spéciaux en duo avec le rythme de la batterie, qui ne faiblit pas. Certes ce n’est pas directement accessible, mais pour ceux qui ont suivi le cheminement musical de Lenny WOLF et qui ont craqué sur Ain’t Crying For The Moon puis sur Magnified, ce nouvel opus confortera leur attrait, et pour les autres partez à sa découverte.
Une vraie explosion artistique, très travaillée, le magicien WOLF ayant passé 18 mois sur son œuvre, d’une maîtrise musicale hors norme et pour un résultat simplement extraordinaire !!!
4 years separate us from the last effort of KINGDOM COME, or rather from the master on board Lenny WOLF. We do not take into account here Rendered Waters which is a compilation of titles re-recorded again with 2 new compositions and which was released in 2011. After Ain’t Crying For The Moon in 2006, which already saw taking shape the musical and artistic evolution of Mr. WOLF, with hallucinating titles of melancholy and near experimental music, all this work of silversmith in composition was glorified by the masterpiece Magnified in 2009. You need to be really in love of the way of seeing the Lenny WOLF’s music because there was in this record a whole concept of writing from this musical genius as the man has the multiple abilities and turned us into stunning feelings! Then today with Outlier, it is the continuity in the positive sense of the term, because the German always brings out paths commercially beaten to invite us in the musical universe which he created. To describe this is to enter into another dimension where the atmospheres, the riffs, the diverse tones with the drums as an oiled metronome hammers every second these songs, filled with feeling, with here and there the craziness from the musical master. Lenny WOLF owns this very natural art to be able to write us poignant melodies, finally always enhanced by an almost industrial sound or sometimes filled of with this hard-hitting density, balanced by the sweetness and the melancholy of his so particular voice. It’s a real prowess! Listen to this God Does Not Sing Our Song's intro in detail: we turn pale with it! With always this hallucinating drums, heady, these sometimes very typical musical distortions (Running High Distortion, Rough Ride Rallye), these devastating riffs where sometimes appear keyboards out of nowhere, to hear finally the VOICE of the master: here is in summary what we can assert on this extremely beautiful Outlier. There is as well this enormous song The Trap Is Alive, more classic, in the full measure of the temperament on the rock of KINGDOM COME: big guitars, crazy rhythm, with still these incredibly powerful drums. The melancholic songs Don’t Want You To Wait or When Colors Break The Grey also are there to be told, for their very elaborate sounds and of the most beautiful effect with very special keyboards in duet with the rhythm of the drums, who don’t decrease. Certainly it is not directly listenable, but for those who followed the musical progress of Lenny WOLF and who were torn on Ain’ Crying For The Moon then on Magnified, this new opus will consolidate their attraction, and for the others, it will be a true discovery.
The real artistic, elaborate explosion, the magician WOLF having spent 18 months on his work, of an exceptional musical control and for a simply extraordinary result!!!
