FREEZE!: Molassess - Through The Hollow (Season of Mist, 2020)

 


Os Devil's Blood foram das grandes bandas da cena rock dos Países Baixos. Liderados pelo génio atormentado de Selim Lemouchi, o grupo foi beber o melhor do rock psicadélico e oculto da década de 70, com influências como os Coven, os Blue Öyster Cult ou Roky Erickson. Sinfonias de guitarras sobrepostas louvavam a glória de Satanás em composições hipnotizantes e espetáculos ao vivo à altura. A vida da banda foi abruptamente encurtada aquando das gravações do seu terceiro álbum (III: Tabula Rasa or Death And Its Seven Pillars, 2013), e meses depois seria a vida de Selim a ser encurtada com o seu suícidio em 2014. 

Em 2019, para o quinto aniversário da morte de Selim, o festival Roadburn encomendeu uma performance aos membros sobreviventes dos The Devil's Blood, com a sua irmã Farida Lemouchi (a Boca de Satanás) à cabeça. Dessa reunião surgiram novos ímpetos criativos que reacenderam as chamas a partir das cinzas.

No entanto, o novo grupo Molassess não se propõe a remexer essas cinzas, nem mesmo celebrar a memória de um companheiro influente, mas antes soltar um grito de dor e raiva contida e fechar um capítulo em busca de algo novo. O disco resultante, Through The Hollow, é uma aventura psicadélica recheada de solos de guitarra mas também com passagens de sintetizadores impensáveis nos The Devil's Blood. O resultado é algo que soa familiar, mas com uma frescura que não seria de esperar de um fruto caído. Para devorar de uma só vez.
