- pierre vervloesem: haines
(2020, download, --, bandcamp)
Guitar player and composer Pierre Vervloesem released "Haines" earlier this week.
Often referred to as the Belgian Zappa, Pierre is best described as 'unique'.
Where his previous release, "Influenza", presented an impressive and almost frightening soundscape including one of his most remarkable guitar solos, "Haines" will take you in a completely different direction:
11 (twisted) pop songs with Pierre on vocals.
Love it.

For once Pierre gives us not only an album where he sings, but where he sings in French! It was a long time since he had the idea but with all the frustrations accumulated in the last years, he finally had the opportunity to record this masterpiece. Each song turns around either something or someone he detests or is about one of his surreal encounters he did or had to deal with in the last few years as a musician / composer / performer. For who speaks French his words are a delight, often full of humour. For the others, his music is as always impeccable compositions which mix such a variety of genres that you need 10 listening to understand all the subtleties of his music! A must!
