We saw? Timber beamer Timbre four years ago not drown in the Music Centre in Eindhoven? The three had just completed her first album on a major label? Released, which made it thanks to Nico Dijkshoorn cautious twitter hype. As for program beamer Jónsi seemed intimate folk of Canadians at that time too soft to impress the grotesque Eindhoven room. How different is that tonight, as Timber Timbre four men Sleeping Beauty plays with her intense folk noir.
Program is for? Sean Nicholas Savage, also from Canada. Wrapped in a raincoat and accompanied by a beat-bearded man plays the young Steve Buscemi lookalike beamer slicke R & B of his debut album released last year? Other Life. We hear a lot of eighties influences and bad jokes of the lady killer, but musically Sean knows nothing interesting to brew: single 'She Looks Like You' is the only song that manages to captivate more than a minute. And why each track fade out?
The stage setting of Timber Timbre is very special. Two cozy porch lights dangling from the ceiling, while in the background a huge disco ball and some standing pears complete the living room setting. Conspicuously absent is the saxophone, which in most recent album? Hot Dreams by - likewise the evening absent - Colin Stetson played such an important role. Opening with 'Grand Canyon' of a living room setting or saxophone lack is little question: singer and former filmmaker Taylor Kirk sings with his distinctive tenor voice an imaginary trip from Phoenix to Hollywood, while guitarist Simon Trottier his six-string guitar - not for the last time tonight - as bass playing.
We do not hear tonight the same instruments as varied in the last three plates. Surprisingly, the absence of Colin Stetson is that of violinist Mika Posen, who are cared for both (and replaced) by keyboardist Mathieu Charbonneau. This leads inevitably to live two lesser moments: the minute and a half long duet between beamer drums and saxophone on title track 'Hot Dreams', perhaps the highlight of the album, is now relegated to an ugly synthesizer gebrei. The same happens to the ironing session at the end of 'Run From Me ", though us a sample of the ladies choir present on album here fortunately saved.
They are the only criticisms of a strong performance that relies explicitly on the most recently released album. beamer "We can play all night ... we do not have many songs That," quips Taylor Kirk at the start of the encore, after which he publieksverzoekje 'Demon Host' solo brings to sing. That supposedly limited oeuvre is primarily a choice of the band: the first two self-released record is nothing played tonight. However, the self-titled album in 2009, which makes more impressed now than they were in Eindhoven.? Words like "intense" and "insistent" shoot through your head when Taylor ceiling light indicates a move with his guitar, and valve 'Lay Down In The Tall Grass "how he sings every night of our dreams will. A tad scary even as he with his arm stretched (being a true Nick Cave) asks "will you beg for forgiveness / will you pray to be saved / the way you choke your children / whenthey spit in your face?" Logically dares no one to take pictures when he asks the audience to put away the cameras and mobile phones. Is it folk noir, dark waltz, David Lynch, americana bulldozer? beamer Perhaps, but Timber Timbre is certainly nice lekkre.
