Néons Blancs et Asphaltine
[Noise Digger]
The aestheticism of the cover-sleeve and the album's title will catch your attention right away. Entering Arman Méliès' universe is a bit like opening a poetry book. You can find an outlandish world tinged with softness and sensitivity. This singer-guitarist is one of these artists who bring freshness to French songwriting. Rehabilitating French lyrics, Arman Méliès appears to be a very good author. The melodies are catchy and the clear timbre of his voice goes ever so well with his guitar playing. Melancholic as you wish, these little ballads, alternating with instrumental tracks, will act on you like a soothing balm and bring you peace and serenity. With his very own style of writing, Arman Méliès releases here a very promising album, and may now be put among the new wave of composer-interprets who are currently renewing French music.
