Jonathan Personne - Jonathan Personne [Vinyl]

Corridor's Jonathan Personne presents his self-titled album, a set of gloomy tales with lively and bursting sound dynamics. At once candid and sinister, light and brutal, this new homonymous album is built on a striking duality, established from the start by the cover - an illustration by Personne on which two children discover the remains of a corpse. The groundwork is laid for the unveiling of a mysterious world where ghostly spirits, strange presences and characters with broken destinies collide. Between 60s pop references with synthetic arrangements, folk-country inspiration based on western-spaghetti imagery, samples from obscure TV shows or movies, and blistering rock grooves with overabundant guitar strings, the album is a more polished and less lo-fi record than the rest of Personne's repertoire, but in an equally inventive and unpredictable vein.
