Lizzy Mercier Descloux - Lizzy Mercier Descloux
Review by Paolo Peraro
Lizzy Mercier Descloux's self-titled album is a timeless masterpiece of experimental rock and new wave. Released in 1980, the album showcases Lizzy's unique blend of punk energy, avant-garde sensibility, and world music influences. The album's 11 tracks are a testament to Lizzy's innovative spirit and her ability to push the boundaries of rock music.
From the opening track "Fire" to the closing track "Herpes Simplex," Lizzy takes the listener on a journey through a wide range of musical styles and moods. Her vocals are raw and emotional, and her lyrics are poetic and thought-provoking. The album's production is sparse but effective, allowing Lizzy's voice and guitar to shine through.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Wawa," a hypnotic and groove-driven song that features African rhythms and a catchy chorus. "Tumour," another highlight, is a haunting and atmospheric ballad that showcases Lizzy's ability to create a sense of tension and suspense.
