Genre: Rock
Rhythms seem to rise in a whirlwind of air, reverberations last and haunt for a long time like happy ghosts, surreptitious melodies that float in your mind, tunes coming from very different places, played since every corner of the planet. The new NLF3 album continues, while refining it, the story of this French group. A story that begins with a resurrection. After the end of Prohibition, their first band, in 1999, the Laureau brothers turned to a new music vein, they took a real disjointed and free path, while coming from the same roots as their previous band. Namely: music born from an idea of rock but with more flexible and airy frameworks, open to all possibilities, including a plurality of horizons. Their music, under the name NLF3, had to be open to other forms and aesthetics from the start, able to integrate a wide diversity of sounds, arising according to the very evolution of their tastes, their desires. 20 years ago, therefore, NLF3 was born, whose first recordings bear witness to both an era and a singularity. Drawing on the contemporary, the first records under this name sought something in the middle of a river, the edges of which were on one side pure abstraction and on the other the hypnosis of rhythm. The music they recorded for the film Que Viva Mexico struck the sweet spot between these tendencies, creating a rich and haunting sound material. In doing so, they never gave in to the sirens of m either, continuing to build their music independently, but also like a crucible capable of mixing the most distant things. The strength of their rhythm? From their brotherhood? In their compositions, something catchy has a centrifugal and hypnotic effect, integrating the various possibilities. In 2024, how do they look? How does the era look at them too? In their new album, they explore new ways and reinvented paths. Started during the Lockdowns of 2020, the album was initially a series of files exchanged, tinkered with at home. On these demos, we heard domestic noises, rhythms recorded according to the available home possibilities. Did these sounds stay on the final album? Yes, in the very material of the pieces which live like universes filled with sounds and paths. With each other, they form a pulsating cosmogony, but also, by the force of it's repetition, almost meditative. Fans of the German Can or some Brazilians like Os Mutantes will recognize there a familiarity returned to the living, devoid of nostalgia, inhabited by a thirst to be in the world, and inscribed directly in the very matrix of reality, which makes you dream and dance at the same time.
