Back in the ocean with Jay Malinowski (Bedouin Soundclash)

A man. An old guitar. A hopeful horizon, with the silhouette slightly blurred by icy deciduous trees. So as I imagine many of the landscapes described internally to listen to me "Brights Lights & Bruises", probably my favorite songwriter album of 2010. Jay Malinowski, who has headed it for 11 long years to reggae-folk-rockers Bedouin Soundclash, cried out to heaven. With the Montreal cracked voice broke the sky, while the stars came down to rock on his lap beautiful compositions like 'Into The Fire' or 'Vacant Youth'. Time is not rendered justice to an album of 10, still today remember with tears. But Jay did not give up, and so today, two years after it all, returns to scene. But not alone, no. Now is accompanied by a string trio called The Deadcoast and together published on 20 November an EP titled "Indian Summer" (Pirates Blend).
If in the previous LP Malinowski cracked the sky, this time the target is the ocean of the Canadian sound sharp attacks. More specifically in the Pacific, just the singer says in a news release. "The album is a nostalgic memory of how I grew up near the Pacific Ocean in the town of Gastown, where I finished recording the album." You only need to listen to the first preview of the album - 'The Pacific Gyre', attached below - to appreciate the comments. The stark acoustic voracity Malinowski has been converted into a crystalline sound on the instruments subtly loom large role, surrounding and embracing at all times (and sharper) members of Malinowski.
Probably we will not be so impressed with "Indian Summer" than "Brights Lights & Bruises". However there are many nuances in the glassy style of 'The Pacific Gyre' that make us an interesting aftertaste introspective sense heading into this upcoming release. We will have to wait with great eye and mainly, his heart wide open.
