Dance with us… We are free ! Four years after release of the EP ‘Trve Brutal Black Jazz’, you get to feel the full energy of the eponym song as I had always imagined it.
What happened during those four years ? Well, pretty much EVERYTHING. When I started this project in London, I wanted to create a music that would be my special place, where anything would be possible, where freedom would be absolute. I remember choosing instruments thinking : « I’m never going to play this live anyway, so I might as well put a gospel choir, a horn section and an orchestra ! » The reception to this EP was so positive that the project grew much bigger, with CDs, vinyls, t-shirts, new songs, extra-ordinary musicians, live concerts, nomination by Moshville Times (UK) and selection by Rockhard Magazine (FR)… and even playing at Hellfest, how crazy is this ?! Meanwhile, I’ve been living in Berlin (Germany), in Bretagne (France) and the world has been shaken up drastically, as we all know. You too probably have changed a lot in those last four years. Directly or indirectly, we went through those four years of Black Metal Jazz together and we overcame many challenges.
I want to dedicate ‘Trve Brutal Black Jazz (Hell Edition)’ to you, to celebrate your resilience in those fours years, your progress, your passion, to honor the fragile yet so precious sparkle of madness that drives your energy, this tiny flame in our heart that can become an explosion of lava. Yes, no matter what, this special place is now as much mine as yours. Worries, challenges, anguish… To Hell !
Anything is possible in Black Metal Jazz.
Turn your speaker up, open your inner fire and get ready to lose your s**t. This is ‘Trve Brutal Black Jazz (Hell Edition)’. Dance with us… We are free !
Stay trve, stay jazz!
lyrics
Au sud chante pour nous l’appel du vent
De toutes parts, les vagues se dressent
Au nord se précipitent les mémoires du temps
Et d’une goutte s’éveille
L’aurore vengeresse
Alors libérez les eaux
Alors du bout de votre âme, soulevez-vous
Alors ouvrez votre fardeau
Et dans le chaos
Volons comme des fous

"I asked myself: how would a collaboration between Miles Davis and Mayhem sound like

Between blast beats and swing, distorted guitars and jazz chords, growl and scat, 'Trve Brutal Black Jazz' is an incongruous music challenging the boundaries of genres....more
