SAXOPHONES No Time For Poetry

Popis:

Still rooted in their characteristic smoky, faded glamour, The Saxophones' latest album No Time for Poetry expands the natural breeziness of 2023’s To Be A Cloud with a sense of angst and tension, to subtly question the current state of the world and their place within it.

Husband-and-wife duo Alexi Erenkov and Alison Alderdice are augmented by their regular collaborator Richard Laws on bass, synthesizers and keyboards, as well as multi-instrumentalist Frank Maston who provided production support.

Evocative imagery and themes define the album, whilst musically, the spectre of mid-period Leonard Cohen hangs over the songs. “That’s the biggest touchstone,” says Alexi, “the kind of dystopian songs he was writing with a satirical attitude helped set the darker political tone of this record.”

FFO: Lee Hazelwood, Leonard Cohen
