Re: I can see so much clearer _ GIRLS news

“He’s going to make another record soon, almost certainly,” Pitchfork’s Jayson Greene wrote of Christopher Owens while reviewing 2015’s Chrissybaby Forever. He didn’t. In 2017, the former Girls frontman’s motorcycle collided with an SUV, leaving him bedridden and unable to afford medical care. A string of losses followed that would be unendurable for most people: his fiancée, his job, his apartment, his cat, his favorite guitar. At rock bottom, he reached out to his former Girls partner Chet “JR” White for a reunion, but White was barely responsive at the sessions and died not long afterward at age 40.

Owens seems to be faring better now, married to a new partner, but his new album, I Wanna Run Barefoot Through Your Hair, is a travelogue of his journey through hell. It’s Owens’ most careful and deliberate solo album, and the tempo rarely exceeds a crawl. While Chrissybaby crammed 16 songs into just under an hour, Barefoot has 10 songs in about the same time.

Mette in prospettiva tutte le sfighe che ti possono essere capitate. Ammazza.
Ruin has come not in fire nor in ashen rain
Only in turgid silence, hangin', flayed.

Try to lull us in before the havoc begins into a dubious state of serenity
Acting all surprised when you're caught in the lie
It's not unlike you

Grande curiosità a questo punto. Pover'uomo.

Madonna, se l’è passata male male male. È sempre stato uno parecchio sincero artisticamente parlando, nel nuovo non sarà da meno anche viste le disgrazie.

Veramente, alcune canzoni sono splendide e sentitissime

Sfiga tanta, ma anche altrettanta droga dalle sue parti. Non meno di alcuni degli idoli del grunge e crossover, solo che quelli avevano l'eroina più che la coca.

Le melodie ci sono nei 5 brani che sono riuscito a sentire. Ho notato anche che le strutture di alcuni pezzi sono piuttosto simili.

Il disco è molto bello, io lo compro. Spero che abbia la forza economica di portare in tour una band e suonare anche le canzoni dei Girls. Ma di questi tempi, potrebbe essere anche troppo tardi per rientrare nel giro dei festival e guadagnare qualcosa.

Ci state tornando su questo disco? A me sembra ispirato, però -faccio il rompiballe- non so quanto aggiunga in termini stilistici. Poi, ad avercene di belle canzoni, a prescindere da quello che aggiungono.
