Tornano gli Iceage

Plowing into the Field of Love is the third album from Copenhagen's Iceage. It is new, bold and forceful. Channeling the rage and emotion of their tempestuous early releases into finely honed musicianship, Plowing into the Field of Love features piano, mandolin, viola and organ atop Johan Suurballe-Wieth's razor-sharp guitars and the lolloping, synchronized rhythm section of Jacob Tvilling Pless and Dan Kjær Nielsen. The record has a clear, uncompressed sound, and Elias Bender Rønnenfelt's desperate vocals are out front, nakedly accountable for the words.

On this album, Rønnenfelt sings of what it is like to be out in the world, dizzy with its offerings, perched on a plateau of false confidence, bliss, fantasy and delirious self-denial. The autobiographical ‘Forever,’ for which Iceage have shared the video today, begins with a pretty repetitive motif over the words, "I always had the sense that I was split in two," and climaxes with a sunburst of horns recalling South African spiritual jazz great Mongezi Feza: "If I could dive into the other, I'd lose myself forever." At the other extreme, the album evokes to a sort of euphoria, especially in the unexpectedly upbeat country number ’The Lord's Favorite’ (video). Yet desperation and loss lurks behind. This is an album about seeing, learning, and rejecting things, in a cycle that repeats and builds. The reference points are wildly varied, but the sound is uniquely and darkly Iceage as the record fights with itself, in the story it tells, and the sound it makes. It is the anthemic sound of a band in motion, unafraid of change, filled with curiosity, musicality and ambition.

Plowing into the Field of Love is out October 6th on Matador Records. It is available for pre-order now with ‘The Lord’s Favorite’ and ‘Forever’ offered as instant downloads with all pre-orders via Amazon and iTunes. Watch the videos for those two songs below.

Iceage today announce tour dates for the UK and Europe and will also tour Australia and North America this autumn in support of Plowing into the Field of Love. All dates are below.

(da come lo stanno proteggendo, questo forse è grosso)

I due precedenti a me piacciono ancora ma sono cose di cui non sempre ho voglia. Si spera riescano ad essere più trasversali col nuovo, è quello che gli manca.

Ascoltatelo assolutamente.

Tanto, tantissimo Nick Cave. Voce totalmente dalle sue parti, le basi e le chitarre a volte lo evocano, a volte finiscono in atmosfere vicine quasi ai Calexico. Tiratissimi ma non veloci, si sente che è un disco pensato per diventare grande. A primo ascolto bisogna vedere se l'ispirazione principale si diraderà perchè per il resto hanno dei momenti pazzeschi.

La seconda mi ha ribaltato.

Ascoltiamolo questo, che forse spacca tutto

Un'evoluzione del genere nessuno l'avrebbe prevista, non esiste proprio. Mica possono chiamarli ancora punk o quello che era.

L'apertura di piano nella prima, la bomba atomica country che segue, tutto, non ce n'è una sottotono, "Stay" se prende bene fa venire gli occhi lucidi. Basta il secondo ascolto per togliersi Cave dalla testa o almeno dare al cantante quello che gli spetta. Al terzo è l'album dell'anno. Al quarto si maledicono per l'assenza di date italiane questo autunno.
