Review of "Scylla and Charybdis"
With the help of Thesis, Jason and his Argonauts managed to sail right in between Scylla and Charybdis. Odysseus, on the other hand, had to face the two seamonsters. To escape très.b is a lot more difficult. The songs of the Maastrichtian band slowly suck you in. Its just like the damn whirlpool of Charybdis. très.b has, however, a more important seductive force at hand; siren Misia Furtak. The Polak of origin breathes, sighs, shouts, screams and sings as if her life depended on it. In the beautiful Ola – also to be found on the earlier released Neon Chameleon EP – she is at her best. Earlier I called her a mix between Björk with a cold and PJ Harvey. In the songs not earlier released on the EP, Furtak has no trouble untying herself from this comparison. In the beautiful melancholic Addiction her voice sounds like darkbrown, syrupy whisky. Well, however she sounds, she always manages to give très.b's songs that uneasy touch . This trait fits perfectly with the undercooled melancholic pop that, on a musical level, flirts with PJ Harvey and, to a lesser extent, Sonic Youth . Here and there this might be slightly excessive but whoever dives into the silent beauty of Winter In My Hands and Moonbathing will hear that très.b is capable of great things. But watch out for that darned Furtak. Before you know it your will sail to shipwreck. THEO PLOEG (not as beautiful as the original, translated from Dutch)
