    Atsuko Chiba’s Water, It Feels Like It’s Growing (January 20th, 2023 via Mothland) is as stylistically diverse as it is thematically anchored, as catchy as it is challenging. Asymmetric, yet seamless time signatures, otherworldly synthetic frequencies, patented harmonies, raga-inspired melodies, cryptic lyrics and orchestral arrangements co-exist within this surreal musical tale recounting one’s relation to their environment. For fans of The Mars Volta, Beak> or Spirit of the Beehive.

    Water, It Feels Like It’s Growing d’Atsuko Chiba est tout à la fois stylistiquement diversifié et thématiquement ancré, étrangement accrocheur et défiant à l’écoute. Les signatures rythmiques asymétriques y sont subtiles, supportant fréquences synthétiques et extraterrestres, harmonies audacieuses, mélodies rappelant des ragas, paroles énigmatiques et arrangements orchestraux, le tout coexistant au fil d’une épopée surréelle retraçant l’individu et son environnement. Pour les fans de The Mars Volta, Beak> et Spirit of the Beehive.

lyrics

Laid across the silo
Words on a pane
And it’s as far as I’d go
To keep things the same

Laid across the silo
Words on her pain
And it’s as far as I’d go
To keep things the same
To keep things the same
Am I the same?
Continuously
Continuously
Continuously
Continuously
Continuously
Continuously changing!

Paces through paces
Your lies ain’t contagious
Times are wagin’
I can’t contain them
I can’t contain them
I can’t contain them
I can’t contain them
I can’t contain them
I can’t contain them
Lately, I’m calm
Foot in the mouth
Putting me down
And I know it’s you

Atsuko Chiba image

Atsuko Chiba Montréal, Québec

Montreal’s Atsuko Chiba venturesomely crosses genre-defining borders with a cohesive and hypnotic blend of post-rock, progressive rock, and krautrock, weaving together a rich sonic tapestry that subverts through offbeat songwriting. The psychedelic armada is back with Water, It Feels Like It’s Growing (January 20th, 2023), unearthing a fierce collection of droney, yet bombastic compositions. ... more
