Toboggan - E Brutal
Toboggan - E Brutal
With - by then - two great albums already released, best friends with Honey For Petzi and responsible for some of our all-time-most-favourite-songs: Toboggan from Lausanne became a fixed parameter within our musical cosmos. With this album, our paths have crossed finally!
Being part of the environment around swiss high quality label Gentlemen and being members or a permanent guest in some of those bands (Maude Oswald plays in Favez, Jérémie Conne plays in Rosqo, Valérie Niederoest sang on Honey For Petzis "Angel's Camp"), the music of Toboggan reflects the broad spectrum of their hometown's music scene: The playfullnes and finesse of timeless rockmusic combined with the deep and gloomy melancholy of an impellent and chanson-like harmony, the transparancy and easiness of a pop song broken by the sad and emotional part of modern postrock, Valérie Niederoest's discreet and narrative voice leading through a complex and intimate music: On "E Brutal" Toboggan collect ten touching and enthralling songs, chary and fragile but so overwhelmingly exuberant at the same time.
This CD comes in a six-sided Digisleeve cover.
