Camembert - Schnörgl Attahk

SKU 33-AltrOck 022
Really superlative first full length from this jazz/rock band. This French group from Strasbourg first came to attention 3 years ago with their self-released EP, which showed great promise. But this new release really ups their game and presents this seven-piece instrumental group at the top of their (or anyone's, really) musical game. The compositions are intricate but not 'difficult' and a little bit reminiscent of Frank Zappa at his most 'jazzy'. The musical performances by these youngsters are simply to die for and even at this stage of the game, they have a really distinctive sound (name another group with a harpist! anyone?). While you have never heard of any of these musicians, the performances are so good that I felt I had to list their names and what they play: Bertrand Eber : trumpet, didgeridoo, cowbell, voices and whistle, Guillaume Gravelin : harp, Fabrice Toussaint : tenor trombone, xybraphone, percussion, Julien Traveletti : bass trombone and tuba, Vincent Sexauer : electric guitar, Philémon Walter : drums, Pierre Wawrzyniak : bass, acoustic guitar and voices + guest Francesco Zago : electric guitar on one track. This is really world-class, impressive stuff. You can't go wrong by checking this one out. Highly recommended.
