Montreal writer and composer Krassy Halatchev (Icicle) invites us into the universe of his latest album – a world of sensual fantasies, eerie nightmares and biting reality. The third instalment of his solo career titled “Reverie”, releases officially on April 3rd, 2016.
Matured and eclectic sound (think of a blend between Depeche Mode, Placebo, Simple Minds, The Black Keys and Beck) fills the 48-minute record.
This latest studio full-length consists of 12 unmistakable compositions that are woven with passion and conviction. They span through delicate slow rhythms, voluptuous mid-range and furious up-tempo.
Icicle takes us through his world of tenderness (“Nothing In You”), apocalypse (“Fools Refuse To Learn”), personal disappointment (“What Day Is Today”), intimate stasis (“Boggles My Mind”) and social criticism (“Paranoid Pigeon”, “The Edge On Which We Run”).
Icicle’s philosophy has closely tied him together with Florida-based poet Joel Jenkins, the man behind the integral and deep-felt lyrics of 4 songs on this record. This collaboration has given life to compositions that are extremely personal and universal at the same time. "Paranoid Pigeon", the album’s first single, is a perfect example of their remarkable teamwork. The song is simply contagious, driven by a hypnotic groove and infectious hooks. Its imagery reflects the zeitgeist of today and the chorus resonates long after the song's end.
