Surface to Air Trio: Surface to Air
L'ascolto procede in maniera assolutamente piacevole, ogni cosa è sempre al suo posto e il senso della forma viene rispettato fin nei minimi dettagli, per carità, ma proprio questa "bella calligrafia" (a scapito di una sana vena inventiva espressa magari anche con le sue imperfezioni) è ciò che lascia più interdetti, in un prodotto alla fin fine sin troppo edulcorato, un po' carente sul piano emotivo, quasi amorfo, per così dire "limbico".
Ciò non toglie cheper gli stessi motivi, letti però da una prospettiva inversaquesto Surface to Air (titolo quanto mai emblematico, viene da dire) non possa risultare meno che ammirevole, in particolare in brani quali "Odalisque," un po' più animato degli altri, eper contrastoil quasi incorporeo (ma sufficientemente ispirato) "The Sleep in Your Eyes".
