Charles de Goal – Algorythmes



By Evan ~ August 7th, 2009. Filed under: collector scum.

From The Mongoose:

“The following is a rather unfavorable review from Trouser Press that I mostly disagree with: “Stylish but awkward, this French artist is at his best on weird, moody synthesizer workouts — those songs that rely on choppy guitar and weak singing aren’t as effective. A version of Bowie’s “Hang on to Yourself” (on Algorhythmes) is skittish and tense, but not especially different from the original; its inclusion seems purposeless.”

I think the reviewer is missing the point. The synth, choppy guitar and so called weak singing all work perfectly together to create a tense, moody, classic lp. I absolutely love this album! It’s a definite treasure of French new/cold wave post punk. And the Bowie cover aint so bad either.”
