Ten years after its release, the reissue of Matt Elliott's 'The Broken Man' seemed essential, so eagerly awaited was it. This is undoubtedly the most dramatic sequel in the Songs trilogy, distinguished by its darkness, from which he has gradually moved away since. The Bristol-born artist delivered this poignant and enduring album in 2011. The folk with Slavic and Russian sounds gives way this time to an arid folk with Spanish tones. This sixth acoustic guitar LP was also an opportunity for Matt Elliott to collaborate with Katia Labèque, who performed a remarkable piano improvisation on the album's sprawling and central track: 'If anyone tells me: 'it's better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all', I will stab them in the face'. As for 'Dust Flesh and Bones', it certainly remains the most iconic track in the Bristolian's discography to date, of biblical simplicity, but with striking emotional power. Mixed by Yann Tiersen, 'The Broken Man' is a bridge between the 'Songs' trilogy and Matt Elliott's recent albums, notably the latest 'Farewell to All We Know' released last year, and 'The Calm Before' from 2016.\" Like a goldsmith, Matt Elliott has carved each of these tracks, like so many precious stones, to create a jewel of undeniable grace.\" --- ROCK \u0026 FOLK ---.\"MATT ELLIOTT REMAINS AN ALCHEMIST OF SOUND AND THE BROKEN MAN IS INDEED MADE OF GOLD\" --- BENZINE ---.\"A POIGNANT AND ENDURING ALBUM\" --- LES INROCKS ---.\"HIS PERSONALITY AND WRITING DEXTERITY HAVE CONTINUED TO REFINE AND GROW.\" --- NOISE ---.","brand":"Matt Elliott","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55310275707224,"sku":null,"price":20210430.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/3521381564853_9e7ec69d-7889-415d-b93c-3151ab241f97.jpg?v=1760318077","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/matt-elliott_the-broken-man-vinyle_2021_lad","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
