Rating: The Calla are another ripe fruit from the New York scene.
They moved there years ago from Texas, and their sound couldn't help but be influenced by it, but that's exactly what they wanted.
Many references (which would be reductive to mention), but independent compositional schemes. The Calla are not a copy of anyone.
Televise is a hybrid album, it winks at true rock, with unforgettable bass and guitar riffs, and the other at the universe of post rock, with long durations, unfinished phrases, and a sophistication above average.
Aurelio Valle sings softly, almost not to disturb, but his voice is also part of the group's artistic design.
The taste for alternating between full and empty, for dark atmospheres, for a subtle psychedelic touch is sublime.
After the decent Scavengers, this is the consecration for Calla. And now we await the next New Yorkers.
