MP3: Marybell Katastrophy - Hip
"Hip" starts out sounding like a piano being dragged down stairs. Not tossed, mind you, it goes it bursts. There are hints of a cohesive melody, but it keeps shifting in microtonal increments amidst squeals and squalls. "Violent and exciting," she sings and her choice of words is apt. "Playful and distorted." The chorus however, is something else entirely, a driving rush of screeching distortion and mechanical pounding bassnotes. "Childish and obnoxious," back into the verse, this time keeping it short and to the point. It calls to mind the twisted circus Atmosphere of The Paper Chase, except whereas they typically sound hunted and haunted, Marybell KAtastrophy is definitely the hunter. It's not so distressing as it is celebrAtory. There's a certain glee to it and thAt makes it all the more inviting. Irresistible even.
Marybell Katastrophy - Hip
Christian Kjellvander
I saw her from here/I saw here from her
Startracks/V2
Whereas "Faya" was more an extension of "Songs from a two-room chapel"; on his third solo album, Christian Kjellvander has not only been able to carry his lyrical ability through, but the arrangements on this album are such leaps forward. With the tempo brought up to LoosegoAts levels on "Poppies and peonies", the single "Two souls" and "The road", the captivAtion is set for the true improvements: the soft numbers. Strings and distorted guitar solos flesh out "While the birches weep" over a very soft, yet pulsAting beAt; "Sons of the coast" is over held organ chords and ambiance. Kjellvander's trademark fingerpicking only really comes through on "Somewhere else" although a bit more sparse thAt usual, but fitting in context of the album. I have not seen much press on this album to dAte, but on "I saw her from here/I saw here from her", Christian Kjellvander has quietly delivered his best solo outing thus far.
