The shadow of their suns

Description

5 years after his last studio album, Wax Tailor is back with "The Shadow Of Their Suns", a "sound feature film" with dark elegance accompanied by an unprecedented and prestigious cast. Behind this allegorical title lies a long period of reflection, the luxury of time in the face of the culture of the moment. Time to observe the light from the shadows, the "whirlwind of life", its excesses, its drifts, and its symbolic violences. Time to think and translate into music as a simple privileged witness of our society.On this new album we encounter rock legend Mark Lanegan, Del the Funky Homosapien (Gorillaz, Hieroglyphics), D Smoke (rising star of US rap), Rosemary Standley (singer of Moriarty), the voice of the late Gil Scott Heron, Mr LIF (Thievery Corporation, Def Jux), Yugen Blakrok (figure of South African rap revealed on the Black Panther soundtrack alongside Kendrick Lamar and Vince Staples), Boog Brown (icon of the Detroit hip hop scene), and Afro-Caribbean singer Adeline (Cee Lo Green, Afropunk).
