         █░█    Shalabi Effect is the most difficult band to       █░█
         █░█    characterize in the MontrealÆs vibrant music       █░█
         █░█    scene. Since their inception in the late 90Æs,     █░█
         █░█    the band, consisting of Sam Shalabi, Alexandre     █░█
         █░█    St. Onge, Anthony Seck and Will Eizlini, has       █░█
         █░█    managed to keep their sound fresh and exciting.    █░█
         █░█    They rarely play previously released material and  █░█
         █░█    they never repeat themselves live, giving each     █░█
         █░█    performance an unpredictable edge.                 █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    This fourth and latest offering was recorded over  █░█
         █░█    three consecutive evenings during the bandÆs       █░█
         █░█    recent residency at the Montreal Arts              █░█
         █░█    Interculturels institute in Montreal, Quebec. The  █░█
         █░█    band practiced throughout the day and recorded     █░█
         █░█    each eveningÆs performance in front of a live      █░█
         █░█    audience. They then harvested a selection of the   █░█
         █░█    best material to create an album of unbelievable   █░█
         █░█    improv. The result is a record that truly          █░█
         █░█    represents the bandÆs appetite for                 █░█
         █░█    experimentation and their desire to keep things    █░█
         █░█    interesting for their loyal following as well as   █░█
         █░█    for themselves.                                    █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    The record opens with ôOut Of The Closetö, an      █░█
         █░█    epic and challenging thirteen minute track that    █░█
         █░█    combines horror movie sounds, minimal              █░█
         █░█    electronics, groaning vocal effects, and drones.   █░█
         █░█    The outcome is pleasantly unsettling, conjuring a  █░█
         █░█    world somewhere between the Amazon jungle, and     █░█
         █░█    Mars as depicted in 50Æs B-movies. ôPai Naiö       █░█
         █░█    manages to sound like a secret collaboration       █░█
         █░█    between Fly Pan Am and Acid Mothers Temple.        █░█
         █░█    ôEarly Reptilian Memoriesö picks up the mood of    █░█
         █░█    the first track, utilizing tribal percussion and   █░█
         █░█    prehistoric rumblings. ôMonobrowö recalls the      █░█
         █░█    energy of Throbbing Gristle via primitive beat     █░█
         █░█    patterns and cut up vocal samples. This track      █░█
         █░█    also brings to mind Alexandre St. OngeÆs recent    █░█
         █░█    work with Et Sans. The hushed, serene tones of     █░█
         █░█    ôHalf Lifeö, resemble the Shalabi Effect sound     █░█
         █░█    from their excellent debut album while ôBelugaö    █░█
         █░█    employs piano, breathy vocals and whistling,       █░█
         █░█    suggesting an unusual hybrid of the music of       █░█
         █░█    Brian Wilson and Robert Wyatt. ôHarpieö sounds     █░█
         █░█    like the band in their earlier two-piece           █░█
         █░█    incarnation but with a much fuller sound. The      █░█
         █░█    influence of Popol Vuh is still very evident.      █░█
         █░█    ôVegas Radiationö is comparable to Philip GlassÆ   █░█
         █░█    work on the Errol Morris film ôThe Thin Blue       █░█
         █░█    Lineö. This dark, cinematic mood is carried over   █░█
         █░█    to the final track, ôSkin Jobö but this time they  █░█
         █░█    incorporate more of an Dario Argento feel with     █░█
         █░█    its creeping sense of unease and tension.          █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    Following last years critically acclaimed and      █░█
         █░█    more accessible ôPink Abyssö, some will see        █░█
         █░█    ôUnfortunatelyö as a return to Shalabi EffectÆs    █░█
         █░█    earlier sound and many will be happy to follow     █░█
         █░█    them on another journey into paths unknown.        █░█
