Bruit Noir
Iv/iii
Crossing the boundaries of the politically incorrect, Bruit Noir offers a raw, hard-hitting album, where the sincerity of the words blends with the intensity of the compositions. Bruit Noir remains true to its minimalist, repetitive aesthetic. Jean-Michel Pires's compositions, somewhere between abstract hip-hop and post-industrial music, are captivating in their rhythms. The judiciously used effects contribute to creating a hazy atmosphere, often dark, but sometimes energetic and even bewitching, a sign of a palette that has broadened.
