Rated 5/5
Review by duhem Apr 23, 2012 (edited 28 days ago)
David Letellier gives us another masterpiece. 'Or' is in some respects even better than its predecessor, 'Autumne Fold' (AF): better in the organisation of the material, from the terrific intro 'Anthem' to the epic and melancholic 'La Belle' the listener has the feeling of an accomplished journey into Kangding Ray's musical world; better also in the structure of the tunes, which is more fluid and dense in this album. The expressivity of each track in 'Or' is as powerful as it is in AF, you really perceive the unfolding of parallel dimensions for each texture of a tune (get some decent headphones to appreciate all of them). Add to this a more explicit dance attitude, especially in tunes like 'Pruitt Igoe' or 'Coracoid Process,' and you get the idea of how perfection should look like.
