Lunt is Gilles Deles' toy. He recorded the
whole thing by himself. Scary. His debut lp begins with a 7:50
instrumental piece, the perturbed soundtrack of a disturbing imaginary
movie. "Love is Wasted Time", the second track, is a pop song
mutating into a demented post rock track.
Nothing is certain.
Apart from some noisy pop experimentations, most of the album is
reminescent of a noisier and crazier Silver Mt Zion, with the same fragile
voice and spider web architectures.
This is an ambitious work, some might say pretentious. I tend to like
monolithic records that you either reject or adore. With haunting melodies,
a clever use of movie samples and loops and ingenious arrangements, Lunt's
songs sound in the same time raw and luxurious. Their labyrinthic
structures take us on a trip inside their author's personal hell. An
impressive debut.
