about

Cut from a magnetic, jagged edge of the Louisiana underground, Spllit open up an entirely new can of worms on 'Infinite Hatch'. A dozen new originals, mined from the minds of Marance and Urq, prove to be quite the follow-up to their introductory 2021 effort, 'Spllit Sides'. Transitioning from home recording project to roadworthy live unit - anchored by Raegan Labat (bass) and Ryan Welsh (drums) has worked wonders for Spllit's style. Their approach to composition remains wonderfully fried - a galaxy of textured sonic synapses, totally wired and deeply imaginative. Yet, in the midst of this collision of sounds, there's beauty. Anxieties transcend into swirling dual-vocal pop art experimentalia, while guitar work taps into something Magical. Spllit's old friend MIDI again contributes to the smokestack of layered tracks, though somehow - IT ALL MAKES SENSE. Crystalline soundscapes from humid human minds. 'Infinite Hatch' is a rare flavor, strikingly different based on how you approach it, yet cohesive. Spllit are triumphant sonic chemists, cooking in the avant-lab that's way, way out there.

"Deuxième album de ce duo de Baton Rouge, Louisiane (maintenant quatuor sur scène). Très porté sur l'expérimentation le groupe construit ses chansons-jeux comme si elles passaient dans un flipper: traversant ou butant contre toutes sortes d'obstacles, tombant dramatiquement dans des espaces vides inatteignables, rebondissant soudain dans un coin, ralentissant ensuite avant une brusque accélération pétaradante, explosée de couleurs vives, de breaks, de tricotis de guitare-tourbillon et de bricolos en MIDI. Si on pense brièvement à des combos math-rock, ce n'est que fugace car il n'y a rien de la structuration englobante ni même de la répétition insistante ou de l'amplitude maniérée chez Spllit: tout semble fignolé à la main avec une inspiration virevoltante et vivifiante. "Infinite tower" dure 32 secondes là où "Bevy Slew" tape les plus de quatre minutes: mais tous ces points de références classiques d'analyse semblent ici complètement superflus. "Gemini moods (return)" et il y a un goût du risque qui semble à vif, les voix de Marance et Urq se superposent sur fond de basse groovy, délire synthétique et coup de vent guitaristique. "Smashed In" et on se laisse porter comme dans un univers polymorphe et hyper ludique où seules les oreilles sont utiles car elles n'ont pas de paupières (Pascal Quignard est passé par là, l'air songeur). Si vous rêviez d'un grand shaker musical qui évoque autant Devo que Raincoats, Deerhoof, Country Teasers, Uranium Club ou même les fulgurances d'Outkast en l'espace de quelques minutes, vous l'avez ici, fermez bien les paupières." @redlightsanatorium
