Rated: *****
Long ago, before the oceans spread, a single land where all life tread... Pangaea! Long time supporter! And high on my list of bands I still desperately need to see live! For in a realm where thunderous riffs clash with swirling mystic energies, there are only a few sonic sorcerers that have mastered the elemental forces like Birds of Nazca. With their third tome, Pangaea, releasing October 3rd, this French instrumental duo carves their name into the stone of legend, conjuring a sound both ancient and cosmic, earthy and otherworldly. A mighty fusion of molten rock and shimmering psychedelia! Instrumental music, like spell craft, demands precision and power. Without a guiding voice, many wander aimlessly through the void, but not these two. From their earliest incantations, Birds of Nazca have wielded their instruments like enchanted relics, summoning storms of sound that transport listeners across unseen realms. Pangaea is their most potent spell yet: a sprawling journey through tectonic landscapes, and beautiful vista’s, dripping with symbolism and raw power. Where others might falter under such weight, Birds of Nazca ascend, high above the clouds of mediocrity, into celestial heights where only the most daring dare tread. Enter their world, and you’ll find yourself swept away in an odyssey of earth-shaking might and transcendent vision.
Transcendental, for where many duo’s linger in the shadows of the lower regions, rarely wandering beyond the eighth realm except for fleeting bursts of melody. Guillaume, remembers that the guitar’s voice can shimmer with bright, ringing tones. Meanwhile, Romuald paints with every corner of his drum kit, crafting rhythms that dance and intrigue, drawing listeners into the world they’ve created both rich and restless. Come the final track Pangaea and the golden hush of dawn, the forest stirring as delicate chirps dance through the air, mingling with the soft rattles of restless wings and the distant whistle of unseen songbirds weaving melodies into the morning light, you will have tasted the waters and the salt of your eyes. And feel blessed to have been a part of this adventure and can be once more. And more. For even though slowly, silently, the plates did glide, tearing apart what time couldn’t hide. But in the echoes of the earth’s deep roar, Pangaea lives forevermore….
