Four years after Grand Paon de Nuit, Palatine is back with a second album with an introspective Phantômaton tone. The band’s music retains this depth of field that distinguishes it from the classic folk-rock vignettes. Mutant and to the nebulous tension, sensitive and to the ambitious, impressionistic and harmonious relations on the alert. Difficult to remain insensitive to their languid and psyche blues, surrounded by misty hedges. Guitars, bass, drums are held in respect, bending to the new arbitration of modular synths, and to the majesty of the singing of Vincent Ehrhart-Devay, who never ceases to bewitch.
