Avis\u00a0:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Que devient-on quand le groupe pour lequel on a jou\u00e9 vient \u00e0 dispara\u00eetre en m\u00eame temps que son leader, rattrap\u00e9 par la grande faucheuse\u00a0? Si beaucoup de musiciens d\u00e9cident de prendre une retraite parfois bien m\u00e9rit\u00e9e, d\u2019autres, au contraire, d\u00e9cident de rejoindre d\u2019autres groupes ou de cr\u00e9er une nouvelle bande. En 2015, le groupe l\u00e9gendaire Mot\u00f6rhead<\/strong> sortait son 22\u00e8me<\/sup> album studio avec Bad Magic<\/strong>, et quatre mois plus tard, Lemmy <\/em>d\u00e9c\u00e9dait et le groupe cessa toute activit\u00e9. Il faut dire que Mot\u00f6rhead<\/strong>, c\u2019\u00e9tait avant tout Lemmy<\/em>, charismatique au plus haut point et que sans lui, rien n\u2019aurait \u00e9t\u00e9 pareil. Guitariste depuis 1983 pour ce groupe, Phil Campbell<\/em> s\u2019est retrouv\u00e9 un peu orphelin, mais ce n\u2019est pas pour autant qu\u2019il allait arr\u00eater la gratte. L\u2019ann\u00e9e suivant l\u2019arr\u00eat du groupe, il fonda Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons <\/strong>et fournit un EP \u00e9ponyme qui sembla satisfaire la presse sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9e. Et pour cause, non seulement c\u2019\u00e9tait tr\u00e8s r\u00e9ussi, mais en plus de cela, la particularit\u00e9 du groupe est qu\u2019il joue avec ses quatre fils. Ainsi, il s\u2019agit d\u2019une formation familiale, qui verse dans le bon gros hard rock qui t\u00e2che. Et c\u2019est d\u00e9but 2018 que survint The Age of Absurdity<\/strong>, le premier album studio du groupe. Et autant vous dire que \u00e7a d\u00e9fouraille s\u00e9v\u00e8re.<\/p>\n

L\u2019album d\u00e9bute avec Ringleader<\/em>, l\u2019un des titres les plus longs de l\u2019album, car il d\u00e9passe les quatre minutes. Oui, ce n\u2019est pas grand-chose, mais la volont\u00e9 de cet album est d\u2019\u00eatre percutant et de rentrer dans le lard sans faire de fioriture. Avec ce morceau, le groupe montre ce qu\u2019il sait faire et dans quelle direction il veut aller. On pourrait croire \u00e0 du Mot\u00f6rhead <\/strong>d\u00e8s le d\u00e9part, mais on va s\u2019apercevoir, \u00e0 force d\u2019\u00e9coute que Phil Campbell s\u2018en \u00e9loigne avec une voix plus claire, des refrains plus marqu\u00e9s et surtout, plus de variation au niveau des rythmiques. Alors oui, \u00e7a va assez vite, on sent le spectre de Lemmy<\/em> planer autour du groupe, mais il y a une certaine filiation sans pour autant faire dans la redite. Le morceau le plus explicite par rapport \u00e0 \u00e7a serait sans conteste Dark Days<\/em>. Marquant en quelque sorte le milieu de l\u2019album, le titre va s\u2019attaquer \u00e0 un rock tr\u00e8s pur, proche de ce que pourraient faire des am\u00e9ricains, avec une jolie m\u00e9lodie et surtout, un petit harmonica qui rajoute une plus-value non n\u00e9gligeable. Il s\u2019agit certainement du meilleur titre de l\u2019album, tout en restant plus rock que hard et prenant de la distance avec le reste de l\u2019album.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Un album qui se veut puissant, entrainant et surtout tr\u00e8s efficace. On remarquera une certaine redondance dans les compositions, et notamment les structures des titres. On restera dans quelque chose de tr\u00e8s classique, \u00e0 savoir couplet, refrain, couplet, refrain, solo et refrain pour terminer. Ce sch\u00e9ma se r\u00e9p\u00e8te sur plusieurs titres comme Freak Show<\/em>, Skin and Bones<\/em>, Step Into the Fire<\/em> ou encore Get on Your Knees<\/em>. Des titres assez courts, mais terriblement efficaces, notamment dans leur refrain, puisque l\u2019on va se surprendre \u00e0 chanter \u00e0 tue-t\u00eate en m\u00eame temps que Phil Campbell, hochant la t\u00eate en rythme. Ce groupe, c\u2019est un condens\u00e9 d\u2019\u00e9nergie qu\u2019il a fallu canaliser, tout en allant dans diff\u00e9rents sous-genres. Car si Skin and Bones<\/em> fait tr\u00e8s hard rock, voire m\u00eame m\u00e9tal, d\u2019autres iront plut\u00f4t chercher des influences vers le punk comme Dropping the Needle<\/em>, un titre qui dure moins de deux minutes, mais d\u2019une vivacit\u00e9 incroyable, ou encore vers le rock plus classique \u00e0 l\u2019image de Dark Days<\/em>, d\u00e9j\u00e0 \u00e9voqu\u00e9, ou encore Into the Dark<\/em>, qui cl\u00f4ture cet album de fa\u00e7on assez douce, avec une pointe de nihilisme dans les paroles. On ne quitte pas l\u2019album joyeux, nous sommes tristes de devoir dire au revoir \u00e0 ce groupe si fabuleux et \u00e0 ses morceaux si \u00e9nergiques. Alors tout n\u2019est pas forc\u00e9ment parfait dans cet album, on peut y ressentir une certaine redondance, il est un poil trop court, et certains titres sont un peu plus transparents que d\u2019autres, comme Welcome to Hell<\/em> ou encore Gypsy Kiss<\/em>, mais cela reste quand m\u00eame le haut du panier du hard rock.<\/p>\n

Au final, The Age of Absurdity<\/strong>, le premier album studio de Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons <\/strong>est une r\u00e9elle r\u00e9ussite. Si on ressent les influences de Mot\u00f6rhead<\/strong> au d\u00e9but, le groupe s\u2019en affranchit pour fournir quelque chose de puissant, nerveux, sans concession et qui fait du rock pur et dur, donnant imm\u00e9diatement envie de sauter dans tous les sens. Si on rajoute \u00e0 cela une technique imparable, des solos parfaitement ma\u00eetris\u00e9s et une voix qui rentre parfaitement dans les canons du genre, nous sommes face \u00e0 l\u2019une des plus belles d\u00e9couvertes de cette ann\u00e9e.<\/p>\n
