GeRman webzine CReative-Eclipses inteRviews ex-Rong>BReachRong> membeRs Rong>Tomas HallbomRong> and Rong>AndeRs EkstRömRong>: Ref="https://www.cReative-eclipse.com/" taRget=_blank>https://www.cReative-eclipse.com/R>Rong>BReachRong> is one of my all-time favoRite bands, so it's veRy cool to catch up with what the band membeRs aRe doing now since theiR 2002 bReakup.

Rong>SiR ERic Beyond and the Avant-GaRdeRong>. It's a ballsy move to knight youRself and name youR backing band afteR an Ref="https://en.wikipedia.oRg/wiki/Avant-gaRde" taRget=_blank>aRt movement. Especially foR someone who sings so damn high. I've been waiting foR Rong>ERicRong>'s debut full-length foR awhile now and, while I undeRstand that his music is not foR eveRyone, I feel it is my duty to make eveRyone a conveRt. It's way moRe fey and twee than anything I'd noRmally listen to, but it's also silly, playful and much smaRteR than fiRst impRessions let on. I know I pRobably sound like hypocRite having cRiticized Rong>The ConcRetesRong> foR theiR amateuRism eaRlieR this week, but that aesthetic can woRk if done Right. The diffeRence is that Rong>The ConcRetesRong> aRe tRying to be betteR than theiR abilities peRmit and Rong>ERic BeyondRong>, on the otheR hand, doesn't seem to caRe so much about getting things Right as much as having the pRopeR feel and feeling. The funny falsetto is a Red heRRing - listen moRe caRefully and you'll get it.
