《Arrebato》是西班牙文「迸發熱情」的意思,來自美國的 Ahleuchatistas 曾待過爵士怪傑 John Zorn 自主的廠牌 Tzadik Records,這張專輯比起以往更富延展性、抒情、也更加的注重細節。《Arrebato》巧妙地喚起令人痴迷的震動,吉他手 Shane Parish 與 Ryan Oslance 激烈地對話發現了不同以往的作曲規則,讓即興力度更加昇華,六首歌曲中 Ahleuchatistas 拆毀、重塑了過往的聲音領域,將音樂作為一種新的語言革命。
Guitar + Drum duo make mammoth melodic tectonic movements that raze and reshape conventional sonic terrains.
On Arrebato, Asheville s Ahleuchatistas embellish their trademark intensity with a more pensive and existential amble. These six pieces channel recollections of a natural kinship the band struck up with a number of communities they played to on an Iberian tour in early 2014. The resulting story threads together a suite of lyrical instrumentals showing a deepening meticulousness for structure—elastic and labyrinthine.
Spanish for "passionate outburst," Arrebato aptly evokes a rapturous rising from the crust, a seismic unsettling of the status quo. Guitarist Shane Parish and percussionist Ryan Oslance erupt in a fierce declaration of life, wielding a newfound compositional discipline that doesn t detain but rather uplifts their long-held improvisational valor.
In August of 2014, Parish and Oslance teamed up with friend and International Anthem co-founder David Allen to produce the new material at Chicago s Observatory Studios. Determined to capture a raw impression of their sound, Oslance—wearing an armor of bells, chimes and makeshift percussives—feverishly completed each performance in a single take. Parish left space under his arrangements of guitar loops and layers, and worked closely with Allen over the following months to forge a tuneful cohesion of the players tensions.
Rippling through mammoth melodic tectonic movements, Ahleuchatistas raze and reshape conventional sonic terrains as Arrebato calls for revolution in a universal language.
