Nieuws MEDEDELING !!
Door de Brexit komen titels die uit de UK afkomstig zijn nog altijd
met vertraging binnen. Soms valt het mee en duurt het slechts 2-3
weken, maar het komt helaas ook voor dat we 4 weken of meer moeten
wachten. We doen ons best om alles zo goed en snel mogelijk te
regelen, maar het blijft lastig...

Omschrijving | This band with a strange name (in fact `Angipatch`
comes from the association of the two first
letters
from each member`s Christian name) came from Lyon,
France. They had been active since the seventies
since they released a single entitled `Reves /
Terre des vilains` in 1976. Just an anecdotal
first
chapter. Their official debut, a concept album,
was
published in 1981 under the title "Vie" (i.e.
`Life`). ANGIPATCH`s style has been compared to
ANGE, ATOLL and MONA LISA, which means a keyboard-
driven and theatrical symphonic rock with emphasis
on poetic lyrics (here an ecological fable). But,
while ANGE had chosen the `commercial` path at
that
moment (circa "Moteur"), ANGIPATCH was still
rooted
in the seventies with the use of gorgeous
synthesizers often close to MANFRED MANN`s (listen
to the fabulous `Vie` track). In fact, their sound
was a mix of synthesizers-based symphonic
progressive rock with new wave music and poetic
rock. Balanced between the early eighties` typical
pop sound and the seventies symphonic rock
movement, "Vie" is a very interesting album by its
sincerity and home-made craftsmanship. Indeed
ANGIPATCH never sold their souls to the music
industry. A rare album with a delicate sound
despite some slightly monotonous vocals. On the
following album ("Delirium") released in 1982, the
band kept on progressing, presenting a more mature
opus. This is a concept album once again, a fable
about drunkenness with still an ecological
message.
The music is more ambitious too, featuring longer
tracks, real epics and some effects. Privately
produced as was "Vie", "Delirium", despite a
superb
mix in the Maison Rouge studios (London), couldn`t
find its public in a post punk and new wave
period.
The band, as a swan song, released a single (and a
video) called `Star` which is clearly pop
oriented.
ANGIPATCH split afterwards. |
