Maverick musician and artist Edvard Graham Lewis returns with 'Alreet?': an exciting album of majestic, experimental pop. Yet, the cheery North Eastern greeting of the album's title belies the tension and drama that lies within. Here, you'll find visceral rhythms, warm electronics and multiple melodic layers, with words that are sometimes sung, sometimes spoken. Lewis's deep, distinctive voice has matured into a rich baritone: portentous yet immediate - and it serves his material exceptionally well. Although he is perhaps best known as bassist/ vocalist/lyricist with post-punk titans Wire, Lewis's solo work is equally powerful. Lyrically he remains one of our finest wordsmiths. His desire to edit his text to it's essentials is smartly counterbalanced by an ability to seed double or triple meanings in his phraseology. Consequently, the whole enterprise is studded with lines and couplets that snare our attention with unexpected hooks and barbs. The album is co produced with Swedish songwriter, producer and musician Max Lorentz, who has worked with everyone from acclaimed composer Magnus Lindberg to ABBA's Agnetha Faltskog. As 'Alreet?' clearly demonstrates, Lewis is still firmly facing the future and determined to unearth new sonic treasure. Indeed, this is one of the most starkly original albums you will hear all year. Genre: Alternative / Rock
