Release Notes:
Fago.Sepia warms the heart. Rich melodies inhabit L'Γme S√re Ruse Mal, and a
jazzy influence brings the formality down a few notches. An overwhelming
organicism floods the album, dominating nearly every aspect of the album. For a
French band, Fago.Sepia's sound isn't extremely new, but most of their
influences fall within the very tight French circle which has likely not fallen
on too many ears overseas -- Chevreuil, Milgram, and Sincabeza, to name but a
few. We might liken the sound to the lovechild of Six Parts Seven and Tortoise,
or perhaps, stretching our imagination, You.May.Die.In.The.Desert and Once We
Were. As with most bands of this ilk, the drumming is superb, often stealing the
limelight when it reaches its full potential. Other times it's content to
provide a solid base for the intricate guitar work, expressing a maturity with
respect to its compositional framework. Yet, throughout the thirty minutes of
music on L'Γme S√re Ruse Mal, the band is able to get the listener quite
involved and engaged into the music itself. This is quite the exceptional feat,
especially without the use of the great theatrics which often accompany
instrumental bands.
L'Γme S√re Ruse Mal is hopefully the start of great things to come from
Fago.Sepia. This small release has made quite the splash, and it'll be
interesting to see what they can do with a full length album at their disposal.
