VP review in Spain

[elviejito]

Hi friends, just noticed that Mondosonoro (one of the main Spanish indie webs) reviews Vantage Point.

It takes 4 over 5 stars (quite good qualifications indeed!!!)
I try to translate (sorry for my English):

Fortunatelly, this time we had only to wait for a couple of years to meet again with the one that adds the fifth work of study of our favorite Belgians. And also it is a luck that their new album not only is at the level of the previous one if not that, for moments, even overcomes it on having obtained a collection of much more cohesive songs about a style in which the instrumental know-how is to the service of achieving the suitable atmosphere.

A tonal density that in occasions there shows himself worrying with this kind of soul darkness and this evident touch arty with whom so good results there have harvested pioneers like the Bad Seeds, Tom Waits or other related bands like The Afghan Whigs, And You Will Know Us By You Trail Of Dead or Gomez. To all the these ones, the cd begins with " When She You eat Down " whose funky and negroid oscillation remember other Colossuses of the nineties, Fun Lovin ' Criminals, but similarities dissapear with the epic touch of the refrain. Following " Oh Your God " had signed it proud Nick Cave and, after this one, a "Eternal Woman" that evokes the rereading that Johnny Cash did of NIN's "Hurt".

Nevertheless, the best thing comes towards the half of the disc with a "Slow" that could be signed by Greg Dulli's song-book and a single, "The Architect", with this touch of modernity post-punk (The Raptures?). To finish a pearl of indie-soul coral called " Popular Culture " with which they endto this catalogue of the nineties rock.

I love that part of your translation... ¿Qué comes, baby?

Thanks for the tip. I'm curious to hear a dEUS album that draws comparisons to Nine Inch Nails, Nick Cave, FLC, Afghan Whigs.....

when she eats down!!!!

Shit, it happens when you try to get internet help for your translation due to your lack of english knowledge. Hope you can all excuse me and that in general main points are understoodable.
This guy of the review likes very much dEUS (he even told in his PR review that PR was the best selection of dEUS song ever ) and in general grunge/indie opo of the nineteis. Band references to other bands are somehow funny

A message for the BAND: We love you in Spain so come to Madrid this spring/summer!!!! There are not still dates in Spain

And it is also number 7 of their chart
