Pushing the Screws<\/em> is Marseille-based m.j.suinat’s first album – and it’s a poignant conjuration of emo-wounds, experiencing near-psychedelic introspection, along with words of wisdom and bittersweet conclusions.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She sings and plays the guitar in a way that combines melancholy, apprehension and meandering – yet, at the same time, there’s an underlying feeling that things will be alright after all.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It takes several listens to notice all the intricate details distilled within the mix – echoing the conflicting emotions put into song & sound. While the music hits very vulnerable spots, it is far from sounding naive, and rather thickens into abstraction, eerie softness and tension.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The voice plays with its own story, mellows itself, derails\u2026 and slowly its presence dwindles into secrets. The questions become contemplative, yet agitated thoughts. Softness thickens, stretches itself into instrumental calls-and-responses, summoning more complexity and catharsis. Some lighter, almost-pop like elements trigger saturated, soaring sounds. What once mirrored genuine solace shifts into trouble, amplified ghosts, distorted by waves of riffs.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pushing the Screws<\/em> reenacts sensations one could experience with grunge, art-rock with a shoegaze thread, and folk songs – for ears intrigued by what Julee Cruise, Smashing Pumpkins and Cindy Lee’s could intricately share.

\u2028\u2028Pushing the Screws<\/em>, le premier album de m.j.suinat, sonne comme une conjuration de blessures emo – avec ses introspections parfois psych\u00e9d\u00e9liques, ses mots de raison et ses constats doux-amers.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le chant de m.j.suinat, sa guitare et ses m\u00e9lodies rassemblent m\u00e9lancolie, appr\u00e9hension et gamberge, mais aussi une forme d’assurance que les choses iront malgr\u00e9 tout.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les morceaux r\u00e9v\u00e8lent \u00e9coute apr\u00e8s \u00e9coute de nouveaux d\u00e9tails distill\u00e9s dans le mix, \u00e0 l’image des \u00e9motions contradictoires mises en [chan]son. Tout en touchant des endroits fort vuln\u00e9rables, les sons sont loin d’\u00eatre na\u00effs, et se densifient avec des moments d’abstractions et de tension. La voix joue de son propre r\u00e9cit, adoucit, d\u00e9raille\u2026 Puis se rar\u00e9fie, quittant la narration pour le secret – aux questions succ\u00e8de un temps plus contemplatif, quoique bien agit\u00e9.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toute douceur devient \u00e9paisseur, s’\u00e9tirant en questions r\u00e9ponses instrumentales de plus en plus imbriqu\u00e9es et cathartiques. Quelques \u00e9l\u00e9ments “pop” et l\u00e9gers sont les d\u00e9clencheurs d’envol\u00e9es distordues et satur\u00e9es.\u2028Ce qui pouvait sonner comme un r\u00e9confort presque candide devient trouble, des fant\u00f4mes amplifi\u00e9s et d\u00e9form\u00e9s par les riffs en vagues.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pushing the Screws<\/em> rejoue des sensations propres au grunge, \u00e0 l’art-rock tirant vers le shoegaze, et aux chansons folk – sans ordre ni raison pr\u00e9cise. Pour celleux qui aiment ce que Julee Cruise, Smashing Pumpkins et Cindy Lee peuvent avoir de complexe en commun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
