Harry the Nightgown - Harry the Nightgown (2020)

In the range of completely perched duos, we can quote Harry The Nightgown who knows how to talk about him. Coming straight from Los Angeles, the duo composed of Sami Perez and Spencer Hartling which offers us a completely daring and original DIY pop. So imagine a cross between Kate Bush and The Raincoats while listening to their debut album.

Composed of thirteen tracks, Harry The Nightgown offers us music like no other. With the endearing interpretation of Sami Perez and his unpredictable compositions such as "Tough Love" which opens the disc but also "Tree Fall" and "Ping Pong", the Californian duo is divided between indie rock, no-wave and warm synthpop and luxurious. But by paying attention to the lyrics, we feel that the duo manages to present themselves to us with "Babbling" or even "Hide Away" as they succeed in rebuilding themselves after a most difficult break in love and the consequences on the mind. generates.

On this first disc, Harry The Nightgown still manages to overcome these tests by making us see all the colors. Whether on "Pill Poppin Therapist" or even on "Untippable" and "March of The Angry Man", the Californian duo makes speak their playful and complex side but behind the mask hides a vulnerability which they try to erase. So on "In My Head" and "What Makes Life So Hard", they evacuate all the evils following these tests in order to overcome them in the future with ambitious and nicely tinkered pop songs.
