review by
Salvo "Lovedeath" Russo____ 
| A sound directly coming from 70’s when bands like Joy Division , Nick Cave were the only expression of this style |
The return of Plan E is by another album that represents a full immersion into psychedelic dark music!
Comparing
it to the previous cd, Plan E show a good maturity in searching of
depressive sensations by the influence of historic bands, even if
sometimes the music goes to monotonous moments.
A sound directly coming from 70’s when bands like Joy Division , Nick Cave were the only expression of this style, and it's easy to notice that the band gets inspirations both in the sound and the musical compositive approach to these bands!
An album that can be appreciated from all those who like this style in which also the arrangements puts in evidence the simplicity by those typical elements of that period.
The
structures of the songs are full of intense and depressive sensations
expressed by the easy arrangements of 70’s!
No
electronic parts but
only an old keyboard sound mixed to some good guitar arrangements
and a deep voice and an intense bass.
The
aficionados of this style can appreciated tracks like the emotive “El
Gusano Royo” that shows good progressive parts into a
70’s mood and the deep vocals.
“Separate
Ways” is another depressive song in which the band show
very depressive sensations in its own way!
Instead I underline the boring “ City in the Garden” and the monotonous “ Mexplorer”. Listening to all the album you'll have the sensations to make a travel into the old 70's dark...A travel into the past!
This
album can be interesting only and only for those
who likes 70’s bands like Doors, Joy Division and
rating: 6,5/10
