San Leo
Aves Raras
Italian cosmic couriers San Leo return with fifth album, 'Aves Raras': a resounding statement of intent, arguably their most accomplished and well-rounded effort so far. Clocking in at around 38 minutes, 'Aves Raras' has it all: analog slag of tribal ritual music, bold guitar riffs, shimmering layers of synths. Frantic grooves, ghostly vocals, dazzling walls of noise and pastoral tonal passages - the ultimate call to enlightenment through euphoria. Over again, San Leo prove to be inclined to explore new pathways in their sonic journey, without relying on formulas of any kind. It doesn't get any tighter, crucial, and most alive than this.
