Rocked by the Jamaican productions of the 60s, Skanky Combo's new album is resolutely rooted in a roots aesthetic, blending modernity, multiple influences, and an assumed tradition. A live sound captured as in the old days in one of Nantes' best-equipped studios: Le Garage Hermétique, with Albert Milauchian at the controls, producer and artistic director of Malted Milk during their golden years. Three years after their first album, the combo aims to definitively anchor itself in the rocksteady tradition, restoring its noble status on a French and European scale.
The album's lyrics, written by Thomas Allain, the singer and bandleader, reflect his multiple personal experiences: his sorrows and joys. Love, the main theme of rocksteady love songs from Jamaican productions, is obviously present, but the album also evokes the disillusionment of our society, the pride of the journey accomplished, and above all, the hopes for tomorrow. Texts are mixed with soft and danceable melodies, supported by mastered instrumental capital. To achieve this, the quintet surrounded themselves with several backing vocalists, a brass section, and guest artists to deliver their best and continue to lull their audience with this enchanting music, sometimes forgotten but always just as effective.
