“Souvenirs d’un autre monde” is the single that anticipates the release of the album “Cries and Whispers” by Corde Oblique. After 4 years the band comes back with a new full length album of 12 songs, 10 of which are originals and two covers.

The first single is a cover by the French band Alcest. This time too, as in every album, Corde Oblique arranged a cover, as often they do, by a Metal band, transforming the original track into an acoustic song, with classical guitar played in fingerstyle, violins and ethereal voices.

 

The title “Cries and Whispers” is a tribute to Ingmar Bergman’s omonymous movie “CRIES AND WHISPERS” and alludes to the division of the album into two volumes

Vol 1 (“Cries”), in Post Rock/ Metal / Shoegaze style

Vol. 2 (“Whispers”), in Neo Folk / Ethnodark style

 

“Souvenirs d’un autre monde” is part of Vol. 2

 

“I heard this song by Alcest in 2017, we played at the same festival in Germany, I fell in love with it and decided to re-arrange it in our way.”

FIRST SINGE OUT ON OCTOBER 8!

“Souvenirs d’un autre monde” è il singolo che anticipa l’uscita del disco “Cries and Whispers” dei Corde Oblique. Dopo 4 anni la band torna in studio per un nuovo full lenght album di 12 brani, di cui 10 originali e due cover.

Il primo singolo è una cover della band francese Alcest. Anche questa volta, come In ogni album, i Corde Oblique inseriscono una cover, spesso di una band Metal, trasformandola in un brano acustico, con chitarra classica suonata in fingerstyle, violini e voci eteree.

 

Il Titolo “Cries and Whispers” è un tributo all’omonimo film di Ingmar Bergman “SUSSURRI E GRIDA” e allude alla suddivisione dell’album in due volumi

Vol 1 (“Cries”, GRIDA), in stile Post Rock/ Metal / Shoegaze

Vol. 2 (“Whispers”. SUSSURRI), in stile Neo Folk / Ethnodark

 

“Souvenirs d’un autre monde” fa parte del Vol. 2

 

“Ascoltai questo brano degli Alcest nel 2017, suonavamo allo stesso festival in Germania, me ne innamorai e decisi di ri-arrangiarlo alla nostra maniera.”
