Rome - Nos Chants Perdus / Limited 1st edition (CD) CD kaufen

Following on from their EP "L'Assassin" (2010) ROME assiduously develop their sound further on the minimalistic, simple singer-songwriter album "Nos Chants Perdus", slowly leaving the apocalyptic realms behind them. Catchy melodies, which breathe the timeless atmosphere of the metropolis on the Seine, impress themselves on the memory. The sonorous voice bears the weltschmerz as well as the yearning for freedom and peace. Apart from the French song titles the lyrics are primarily performed in English, while the music is constructed primarily with acoustic instruments: piano, guitar, touches of strings, accordion. They have largely relinquished electronic elements, which marks ‘Nos Chants Perdus’ out as a further stride in the work of the band.

"Nos Chants Perdus" by ROME is an exceptional and valuable example of the art of singer-songwriting, the likes of which haven’t been heard in this concentration and with such gravity for a long time.

The album is published as a strictly limited special first edition.
