Reviews
- Ekkehard Ehlers brings his experimentalism to the blues with A LIFE WITHOUT FEAR, as the twang guitar and vocals thread their way through the cut-up "Ain't No Grave." "Frozen Absicht" and "A Second Fire" lean more on the atmosphere, with bits of sonic debris floating into view, but "Strange Things" brings things back to earth. "Die Sorge Geht Über Den Fluss" emphasizes the jazzy trumpet line, while "Nie Wieder Schnell Sagen" does the same for the harmonica. The blues get an unmistakable African bent with "Misorodzi," as if he's tracing the roots all the way back. "Maria & Martha" opts instead of post-rock guitar plucking and some lonely, spacious horns, and the eerie, chaotic "O Death" ends the album on a more unsettling note. Really fascinating.
