The Pine Hill Haints - The Evening Star - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Pavol Breslik writes of his new InchFrom the very beginning, I had enormous respect for Die Winterreise, because it demands everything from the narrator. Whenever I open a page where I have set the notes aside and look at it again, I have new questions. And sometimes I don't find an answer to everything. This 'process' never stops.Inch With his 3rd Lieder Album for Orfeo, Pavol Breslik sets foot on the 'Olympus' of German Lied Gesang with Schubert's Winterreise. His internationally acclaimed recording of Schubert's Die schöne Müllerin (C737151) foreshadows that he has something to tell us also about this genius and mystical masterwork. InchWe artists are always strongly influenced by the work we are just doing. We put our entire soul into it and do our very utmost to present it to the listener. Only whoever has really felt suffering, can sing about suffering. Here, it is a question of authenticity.Inch

Dabbling in glam, slipping in a little funk and soul, drinking the psychedelic Kool-aid, blasting the synthesizer, cranking up the guitars, and wrapping it all up with a dose of pop smarts, the Evening Descends is the first great album of 2008. Evangelicals The Evening Descends' just might be Oklahoma's answer to Prince's 'Around the World in a Day', but from the perspective of someone crashing at Pee-Wee's Playhouse, who happens to have a chainsaw slowly gnawing through his leg. 'The Evening Descends' is crazy, self-assured and above all, a totally wild ride. 'The Evening Descends' is full of the bands prodigious musical skill The deft guitar work, the clever pop sensibility and the wild arrangements.
