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

Apr\u00e8s l\u2019\u00e9coute de plusieurs albums de metalcore (I Killed the Prom Queen<\/strong>, Dead by April<\/strong>, Set to Reflect<\/strong>), une question s\u2019impose. Comment se d\u00e9marquer de la masse et faire les beaux jours de ce genre peu m\u00e9diatis\u00e9 \u00e0 cause de sa violence\u00a0? Si certains comptent sur leurs r\u00e9f\u00e9rences \u00e0 de grands groupes qui sont aujourd\u2019hui des valeurs s\u00fbres (I Killed the Prom Queen <\/strong>s\u2019appuie fortement sur In Flames<\/strong> par exemple) et d\u2019autres utilisent un m\u00e9lange surprenant et parfois culott\u00e9 (Dead by April<\/strong> rajoute des sonorit\u00e9s \u00e9lectro\/pop), certains pr\u00e9f\u00e8rent s\u2019appuyer sur du classique ou alors casser des codes en proposant des ruptures au sein m\u00eame des morceaux. C\u2019est un peu ce que propose Set to Reflect<\/strong> dans son premier album, Artificial Sun<\/strong>, essayant de mettre des cassures au sein m\u00eame des morceaux, proposant ainsi ce que l\u2019on qualifie de post-metalcore. Originaire de l\u2019Ohio, le quintet offre un premier album g\u00e9n\u00e9reux bien que court, mais parfois relativement poussif, voulant toujours pousser \u00e0 son paroxysme une certaine violence avec un style un peu trop redondant. Retour sur un skeud qui a un fort capital sympathie mais qui p\u00eache par son manque d\u2019originalit\u00e9 et de variations.<\/p>\n

Le skeud commence parfaitement avec Pacing in a Panic Room<\/em>. Le titre demeure violent, mais il a une certaine structure et surtout une rythmique qui le rendent int\u00e9ressant. On notera aussi la marque vocale du groupe, avec un chanteur qui ne poss\u00e8de pas forc\u00e9ment une bonne maturit\u00e9 en growl, mais qui peut fournir un chant clair int\u00e9ressant. La rupture calme en milieu de titre est sympathique aussi, montrant que le groupe sait ce qu\u2019il fait. Bref, le titre est franchement bon. Par la suite, cela va se g\u00e2ter, notamment avec Preying for Forgiveness<\/em> qui reste binaire et qui n\u2019apporte rien du tout dans le genre. Guitares satur\u00e9es \u00e0 bloc, growl omnipr\u00e9sent, quelques bribes de chant clair, on est vraiment devant un titre qui ne marque pas les esprits et c\u2019est dommage. On retrouve ce gros d\u00e9faut avec More Than Familiar, <\/em>un titre braillard et pas forc\u00e9ment int\u00e9ressant ou percutant. Certes, c\u2019est violent, les amateurs du genre perdront certainement leur pied, mais globalement, c\u2019est hyper format\u00e9 et on a l\u2019impression d\u2019avoir d\u00e9j\u00e0 entendu cela des millions de fois. A Liar\u2019s Breath <\/em>est un titre un poil plus construit, avec une intro efficace et des riffs plus structur\u00e9. Les phases calmes du titre sont planantes et relativement efficaces, annon\u00e7ant alors une temp\u00eate que rien ne pourra arr\u00eater. On regrettera la voix du chanteur qui essaye de partir haut, mais qui n\u2019y parviendra pas. I Am the One Who Knocks <\/em>fait partie de ces titres courts, tr\u00e8s agressifs, mais qui ne restent jamais en t\u00eate, la faute \u00e0 un refrain tr\u00e8s difficilement identifiable et l\u2019absence de moments chant\u00e9s. C\u2019est braillard et on a l\u2019impression d\u2019\u00eatre face \u00e0 un titre plus bouche-trou qu\u2019autre chose.<\/p>\n

\"Set-To-Reflect-2013\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With a Wooden Face<\/em> continue \u00e0 montrer que le groupe s\u2019accroche \u00e0 ce que l\u2019on fait de plus classique dans le metalcore. Mais le titre propose un petit plus, un refrain plus accrocheur que le reste de l\u2019album. N\u00e9anmoins, le titre ne se d\u00e9marque pas des autres morceaux et c\u2019est assez regrettable finalement, rendant tout le skeud hyper r\u00e9p\u00e9titif. Le morceau suivant est une sorte de coupure d\u2019une minute ultra violente qui ne sert franchement \u00e0 rien, si ce n\u2019est caler un titre tr\u00e8s long avec The Only Place to go From Here is Back the Way we Came<\/em>. Cycles <\/em>est un morceau court aussi et qui ne poss\u00e8de aucune originalit\u00e9, contrairement aux deux morceaux suivants. Long Lost\u00a0: Divide<\/em> est un excellent titre ravageur, avec une intro efficace et un rythme absolument \u00e9pileptique, avec des ruptures tr\u00e8s surprenantes et une esp\u00e8ce d\u2019hachure rendant le titre assez unique et beaucoup plus innovant que le reste. Cette innovation ne s\u2019arr\u00eate pas l\u00e0, puisque le titre d\u2019apr\u00e8s est r\u00e9solument le meilleur morceau du skeud, avec Artificial Sun<\/em>. Plus calme, poss\u00e9dant une ambiance unique, s\u2019appuyant sur des chants d\u2019enfants, le titre est franchement puissant et tr\u00e8s int\u00e9ressant dans sa structure et son style. Il marque une vraie rupture avec ce que l\u2019on a pu entendre pr\u00e9c\u00e9demment et c\u2019est tr\u00e8s appr\u00e9ciable. Cela montre aussi que ces brutes poss\u00e8dent un talent pour fournir autre chose que des grattes satur\u00e9es \u00e0 en p\u00e9ter les tympans. Malheureusement, chasser le naturel, il revient au galop, Catharsis<\/em>, qui cl\u00f4t l\u2019album est un titre anecdotique encore une fois, pr\u00e9f\u00e9rant la violence \u00e0 la technique, m\u00eame si le titre reste meilleur que d\u2019autres dans tout l\u2019album.<\/p>\n

Au final, Artificial Sun<\/strong>, le premier album de Set to Reflect<\/strong> est une semi-r\u00e9ussite. Ou un semi-\u00e9chec, \u00e0 vous de voir. Tr\u00e8s agressif, le skeud poss\u00e8de le d\u00e9faut majeur d\u2019\u00eatre tr\u00e8s r\u00e9p\u00e9titif et de ne pas trop se mouiller en termes d\u2019imagination. Si techniquement parlant cela reste tr\u00e8s bon, on sent que le groupe s\u2019appuie sur des acquis et prend le minimum de risques pour fournir quelque chose d\u2019assez classique.<\/p>\n
