Tales Of Uncertainty (White vinyl)

Description

The song thrush, known as "grive" in French, is a migratory bird with no strict boundaries. Its clear, melodious song is famous for its lively rhythm, repetitive patterns, and varied verses, with each bird having its unique repertoire that may include imitations reflecting its habitat. This ornithological description might encourage you to observe birds more closely. More importantly, it aims to make you appreciate with your heart and senses the project at hand: GRIVE, a bird's name for a contemporary (post-?) rock group. Agnes Gayraud (La Feline) and Paul Regimbeau (Mondkopf, Oiseaux-Tempete, FOUDRE !, Autrenoir, Extreme Precautions) share a passion for freedom, experimentation, and the pursuit of new sounds. Although their collaboration officially took flight in early 2021 with the release of an EP, the two musicians began experimenting as early as 2015 at the Performing Arts Forum in Saint-Erme, Picardy. In these rural landscapes, they sketched out a new sound-both direct and contemplative-where they could tell stories of fast-food joints ("Burger Shack") and emancipation ("How Many Years"), which their debut album, Tales of Uncertainty, crystallizes into a unique work. Recorded live, these eight tracks capture the excitement and spontaneity of a meeting, revealing an unmatched chemistry. Shoegaze? Slowcore? Post-folk? The genre doesn't matter. Deeply organic, Grive's compositions evoke liminal spaces and vast landscapes. Influenced by the sound of the 90s, their ambivalent nature is resolutely contemporary: by turns sharp with their edgy guitar riffs or soothing with the thick, round bass of a Moog synthesizer. Here, the storm threatens (or is it the heart rumbling?). There, the melodies with clear lines and poisonous beauty insinuate themselves into languid and haunting tempos. And as a guiding thread, Agnes's voice speaks directly to our subconscious reveries, in that fine line between dream and reality where everything is uncertain. Grive's music has no clock. But it does something with time. "Wait & See" is its cautious yet ambitious motto.
