Un grand Merci \u00e0 Erikillmister (ex Soil Chronicles) pour sa chronique de l’album “PSYCHO MIRROR” qui nous le rappelons, sortira officiellement le 1er Mars 2025 !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

“9 ans, c\u2019est long ! Mais ou \u00e9tait pass\u00e9 Norwalk ? Rien \u00e0 se mettre sous la dent depuis le formidable EP \u00ab Rebirth \u00bb et des quelques convaincantes \u00ab support dates \u00bb avec en point d\u2019orgue la finale nationale du \u00ab headbang contest \u00bb \u00e0 la Fl\u00e8che d\u2019Or (Paris). Les ann\u00e9es COVID avaient-elles eu raison du quatuor voironnais ? <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u2019\u00e9taient-ils tout simplement d\u00e9sagr\u00e9g\u00e9s dans la langueur quotidienne de la vie ?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Que Nenni ! Aimant les choses bien faites, ils peaufinaient tout simplement leur retour, et \u00e7a a pris un peu plus de temps que pr\u00e9vu ! Mais je vous prie de croire que le r\u00e9sultat est \u00e0 la hauteur de l\u2019attente !<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un instrumental sobrement intitul\u00e9 \u00ab intro \u00bb nous fait directement entrer dans le vif du sujet, et d\u2019embl\u00e9 on se rend compte que quelque chose \u00e0 chang\u00e9 chez Norwalk. En effet, la sonorit\u00e9 semble diff\u00e9rente, avec un spectre sonore plus \u00e9largi, n\u2019h\u00e9sitant pas \u00e0 lorgner vers le Nu metal.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab Psycho mirror \u00bb qui donne son nom \u00e0 l\u2019album est de facture un peu plus classique, son riff principal d\u00e9coupe l\u2019auditeur \u00e0 la mani\u00e8re d\u2019une tron\u00e7onneuse hightech, pr\u00e9cise comme un scalpel et implacable comme la mort. \u00ab Cognitive dissonance \u00bb est l\u2019arch\u00e9type de ce que Norwalk maitrise, les morceaux aux ambiances multiples. C\u2019est magnifique ! Tout s\u2019enchev\u00eatre \u00e0 la perfection, guitares aux entrelacs alambiqu\u00e9s juxtapos\u00e9es sur de lourdes sections rythmiques, le tout magnifi\u00e9 par la rondeur d\u2019une basse aux accents presque funky. Du travail d\u2019orf\u00e8vre ! <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comment ne pas aimer aussi le crescendo de \u00ab march of the clicks \u00bb ? De plus en plus vite, de plus en plus fort, une v\u00e9ritable d\u00e9monstration de force. Le chant, ici parfois en growl, est une r\u00e9ussite. Suivant le tempo effr\u00e9n\u00e9 de ses comparses, John se d\u00e9chaine, semblant m\u00eame en garder sous le capot. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Voil\u00e0 un des param\u00e8tres qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 modifi\u00e9 chez Norwalk ! Le chant est plus diversifi\u00e9, moins monocorde, un plus ind\u00e9niable. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

De facture un peu plus classique \u00ab Feelings hunter \u00bb comblera d\u2019aise les aficionados d\u2019un thrash plus conventionnel, quand le combo d\u00e9cide de faire lourd et gras, il contr\u00f4le le genre, et ce n\u2019est pas cette violence jugul\u00e9e qui me fera dire le contraire.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab Creeping me \u00bb est sans doute pour moi le titre le plus accrocheur de l\u2019album. Il r\u00e9sume \u00e0 merveille l\u2019\u00e9volution des is\u00e9rois. Du growl ici encore, mais aussi une partition lorgnant parfois vers Machine Head, une alternance de rage et de r\u00e9pits excellemment interpr\u00e9t\u00e9s\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab Hybrid museum journey \u00bb est quand \u00e0 lui la pi\u00e8ce maitresse de l\u2019\u00e9difice. Un sublime instrumental d\u00e9livr\u00e9 de main de maitre par les quatre comp\u00e8res revisitant tout le catalogue de leurs influences, \u00e0 la Norwalk, sans plagier, sans excessives fioritures. La sobri\u00e9t\u00e9 n\u2019a ici d\u2019\u00e9gal que le talent des musiciens. Tout est parfaitement pens\u00e9. On pourrait presque parler de peinture, de fresque. Une r\u00e9ussite absolue ! 600 secondes d\u2019instrumental, ou jamais on ne s\u2019ennuie, il fallait oser ! C\u2019\u00e9tait un sacr\u00e9 pari\u2026 Mais qui au final s\u2019av\u00e8re gagnant ! <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

La touche finale de l\u2019\u00e9difice est une sorte d\u2019hommage au pass\u00e9 un brin parodique en guise de conclusion, avec \u00ab thrash racer \u00bb on ne fait pas dans la po\u00e9sie, on va \u00e0 l\u2019essentiel \u2026Du thrash pur et dur ! Comme John, Bans, Byff et Jeff l\u2019\u00e9ructent\u2026 \u00ab WE ARE NORWALK! \u00bb” <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
