about
Leading with the furious percussive sound of Gazelle Vs Gazelle, a restless chase of a groove that sparks with Congotronic -esque psych bursts from the outset, driven hard by a snapping rhythm section, thumb piano fireworks (quite literally when performed live!) and the ecstatic Brazilian heart of Carnival.
lyrics
Swords in the air, boats to the sea, Gazelle runs on top of the water
The sea invites sky, the sky joins with the sea, with little strings of water
To the sun of the sea, star of the air There in the sky there are 3 stars, all in a line together. One is mine, one is yours, one stays on it's own.
---
Espadas no ar, barcos no mar,
corre gazella em cima da água
O mar convida o céu, o céu uni com o mar,
com cordinhas de água!
Pega o sanza!
Chuva, chuva, chuva, chuva!
Gazel-leva, gazel-leva, gazel-leva, gazel-leva
Pro sol do mar, estrela do ar
La no céu tem três estrelas
todas três encarerinhas.
Uma e minha, outra e sua,
outra vai ficar sozinha.

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell

I haven't heard anything as just completely perfectly formed out of the gate--every decision the right one, what to include but more what to exclude--maybe ever. Don't know who Sault is, but they do not sound like they could be anyone who hasn't paid some dues to get this good. Or signed some Satanic contracts. 100% confidence, and it sounds 110% earned.
