Monsters And Fantastic Creatures

Description

There are three of them - a Mongolian, a Bulgarian, and a Frenchman, but it feels as if an entire tribe of fierce horsemen is taking us into the steppes of Asia, passing through the Balkan lands, with violins on their backs and drums in their luggage. - - Their music emanates a unique cohesion, powerful and overflowing with enthusiasm. From the madness of Balkan dances to desert rhythms, punctuated by punk-rock riffs, Violons Barbares gallops between the Mongolian steppes and the gates of Europe. It’s flamboyant, it stirs the blood! - - - - Mysterious and hypnotic - such is the universe of the new, fourth album by Violons Barbares. It is both a rock from the distant Mongolian steppes, a blues emerging from Dracula's castle, a folk of exorcism ceremonies from Bulgarian lands, and the unsettling rébético of dark taverns… - - The virtuosic and atypical trio immerses you in a world filled with demons, vampires, ghosts, monsters, and dragons. Some are frightening, others inspire dreams. - - After three albums and fifteen years of concerts around the world, Violons Barbares creates a new, fourth thrilling opus inspired by the archaic popular beliefs of Bulgaria and Mongolia. The musicians pay tribute to their roots, delivering legends and tribal beliefs with a decidedly contemporary language. - - Fifteen original tracks, including 12 songs composed and written in 5 languages: Mongolian, Bulgarian, French, German, and English.
