A look that pierces the fog

While his former partner who had reached the light seems to fall from the sky by participating in music dispensable film, Brendan Perry remains in the shadow that has always been his element. Already very discreet at the time of Dead Can Dance, where he was often overshadowed by Lisa Gerrard (should we interpret the cover of the album as a humorous wink?), He perseveres with an album with a melancholic compositions disappointed many fans. And yet ... If all is uneven, some songs are already among his finest, including the Medusa sublime where the tear is expressed without emphasis but with a very rare emotion and glowing Archangel which closes the album on a question to which there is despair of one day having the answer. Brendan also has a voice.
