from Gnosis
Eric Lumbleau  

13-July-2001

 

 
Il y a des Jours

Part of a holy and wholly ignored French tradition of fey, Art Brut-addled, Rock In Opposition associated f**kery, Hellebore are shot through with the same rich veins of Inspired illogic that riddle the work of Etron Fou Lelouban and Albert Marcoeur, the twin 70s founts for this breed of Gallic musical eccentricity. In the 80s, ground zero for these developments was the Ayaa label and its proprietor, Denis Tagu. With membership in four of this genre's finest outfits (Look De Bouk, Szentendre, Toupidek Limonade and Hellebore), Tagu is truly the grand old man of this terminally obscure contingent. In concord with the practices of his other units, Hellebore's bouts of breezy bonhomie and subtly skewed savois-faire are, on their one and only mid-80s release, repeatedly destabilized by all manner of impish harmonic chicanery. Unlike Tagu's other units however, Hellebore frequently corral all these wayward tendencies into terrain that's often both darker and jazzier than anything else he's had a hand in.

A track like Uminak-Marquis De Saint Cricq presents a virtual catalog of Hellebore's collective strategies, weaving languid threads of intertwining guitar and clarinet filigree before collapsing into a slurry of Contortions-level cacophony, coming up for air amidst tinking rhythm boxes and haunting male choruses, morphing into a wheezing Parisian Cluster plus piano and finally lurching into a discordant march.

Hellebore's paean to the spirit of musical unpeggability is a sonic treasure chest for those willing to look outside the margins.

There are 3 bonus tracks presumably from the same sessions on the cd reissue which sound like they have been heavily edited. I would love to here some more of 'em ! By the way the original vinyl sleeve is simply breathtaking and printed on the lushist of paper so if you ever come across it snap her up ! Not too scarce, either.
 
I posted some pictures of her which are buried in this thread somewhere.

Thoses two links are cool. But like you said, The French problem.
Good Stuff though !

I knew you'd like it !

Rhesus O kinda reminded me of Hellebore. Atleast from the little of Rhesus i've heard

Haha !

I'm sure Yorda won't wont say anything... She never does



 
 
I was toying with the idea of getting a Yorda tattoo. Either that or the pink bird from Phoenix
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


Haha ! That'd be a cool tattoo !

And maybe you could get one of thoses new fancy Tatto's that display different images at different angles. So you can have a tattoo of her ears flaping up and down.
Ok that's a bad idea.. but still

Haha, I've never heard of that game Phoenix
To vintage for me.
