Icicle : Senescence.
He who sings thinks no evil.
Senescence (Icicle's latest offering), in its essence, is about death,
mortality and the finality of things.
Indeed, it is an album which deals with difficult subjects. It questions, and it
consoles. It is full of zest, clarity and above all - peace and resolve. It
celebrates death rather than dread. In fact, it even brings a festive feel to it.
The opening/intro track Killer sets the mood for a journey that is rich in
amplitudes and anticipation.
The second track Questions (Part 1) gets to the point rather adroitly with a
powerful and assertive tone. It is as if Krassy Halatchev (the main force
behind Icicle) is racing with the clock but, in reality, aren't we all
U+003F
?
The first single Talk Talk Talk was dubbed as "the best break-up song ever"
by one of Icicle's long-time loyal fans. It is a track that masterfully captures
the feeling of abandonment, betrayal, hurt and loss. It grips with raw anger,
despair and agony from the first note.
The second single Another Moment, featuring Laurie Gordon on lead vocals,
is in full contrast to the latter. It is a soft ballad-esque tune which focuses on
the importance of moments and details that matter the most. Time is
running out after all.
Senescence is a record in the most traditional sense. It is an album which
beckons you sit down and listen to in its entirety because,
as Prince reminded us, "Albums still matter."
