Art Zoyd - La Chute De La Maison Usher (2008)



Art Zoyd's latest album is very avant garde ........ so much so though that i find it all really unmemorable to be honest, as much as say, there "Metropolis" was.

 This is yet another soundtrack album and i feel suffers ( as all there newer albums do, for me anyway ) of the absence of "Thierry Zaboitzeff" which only goes to show what a major part of this bands sound he was. Sadly this album just comes across to me as a meandering intense unfocused onslaught of FX which i don't think too many would actually give a second listen.

To sum up ...dissapointing. You'll do much better to check out any of "Thierry Zaboitzeffs" albums which are really outstanding and have more of the "Art Zoyd" sound than this album unfortunately only hints at.

Art Zoyd is still a genius band and always full of inspiration since 1970
i do like Poe writing and Jean Epstein movie is very near from Poe spritit but without sound at those ancient time when the moie was made of and now art zoyd arrive and bring us those incredibles pieces of music LE MAnoir is my favourite a real fear a real gothic atmosphere nothing to compare with gothic group ha ha but musicians in progess 19/20
