Godspeed You Black Emperor meets Bob Dylan !? Bizarre Entstehungsgeschichte ! Aufgenommen an einem Lagerfeuer am Strand, markiert "Horses In The Sky"" das insgesamt dritte full length-Album des Musikerkollektivs. Wie auch schon die Vorgänger präsentiert es die Band als eine tief in der Protest Musik verwurzelte Vokalgruppe. Doch lassen wir Leader Efrim selbst zu Wort kommen: "This is our torched estates - 6 busted waltzes for world war 4 thru 6, or the sound of our nervous unit collapsing across sing-song eruptions of anxious light and clumsy heat.[...] the politics of it is just love thy neighbour mostly, or heartbroken temper tantrums for grumpy refusers, or saucy anthems for all the stubborn dumbass resistance cadres maybe [...] the indignant critics amongst us should note that as usual there's more questions than answers here, more complaints than solutions, and at times the group singing is a little out of tune; the name of the record is 'horses in the sky', and we thank you all for listening...". These are sticky, worried knots of songs, worked out on the nomadic road tourwards.
Reviews
K. Smit in Jazzthetik 6/05: "Horses In The Sky", zählt neben denen von Godspeed You! Black Emperor, aus deren Reihen sich auch Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band zum Großteil zusammensetzt, zu den besten, die das kanadische Studio Hotel2Tango jemals in die Öffentlichkeit entlassen hat."Disk 1 von 1 (CD)
