Perpacity – Discordia (Album – Perpacity)
Genre/Influences: Electro-Pop.
Format: Digital.
Background/Info: It took circa three years to Martin Nyrup and Ian Harling to achieve their newest opus “Discordia”. Their previous album “Conflagration” was released by ScentAir Records while they self-released this new opus which got introduced by three singles.
Content: Perpacity remains driven by Electro-Pop influences which they adapted into a wafting format. A few elements in the production might remind you of Depeche Mode but globally speaking the album remains very wafting. This feeling is accentuated by space-like sweeps and sound treatments.
+ + + : I definitely prefer this album to its predecessor the band having reached a higher degree of maturity. This is a well-crafted production featuring cool, vintage, sound treatments and delicate piano arrangements. Previous singles “Granite” and “Little Death”both belong to the best exponent of the album.
– – – : Despite of this easy listening sound experience I’m however missing an ultimate point.
Conclusion: Electro-Pop music to dream away!
Best songs: “Granite”, “Dead Letter”, “Little Death”.
Rate: 7.

I have been working for over 30 years with Side-line as the main reviewer. My taste is eclectic, uncoventional and I prefer to look for the pearls, even if the bands are completely unknown, thus staying loyal to the Side-Line philosophy of nurturing new talents.
