I am not skilled in writing reviews, and I think that after this further attempt, you will all unanimously agree. Definitely.
Anyway, I believe my suggestions (this is the 2nd) are at least sufficiently interesting and above all, never Derecensed.

"So Many Prophets" by Fetish deserved this opportunity, with Despazio all to itself!

Fetish: a South African band led by lead vocalist and lyricist, Michelle Breeze. Apparently, a relatively known figure in Cape Town.

"So Many Prophets" [SMP]: the title of the third work (probably the major one), born as an echo on the almost dissipated trail of the ambient/trip hop genre. The acoustic sound versus the electronic one and vice versa, the dominant theme of "SMP."

Released in '99 for Vergin German, it offers 11 tracks that, indeed, easily range from "easy listening" electronics to commercial pop/rock.
The band, in all respects, consists of a standard quintet of voice-guitar-bass-keyboard-drums.

Never predictable even if permeated by multiple "déjà-vus", it is appreciated sometimes for its melancholic atmospheres, sometimes for its compelling rhythms. The strong point of this product lies precisely in never being tied to a specific musical style.

There is an evident evocative nod to groups such as Massive Attack and Tricky regarding its electronic roots. The seductive and perhaps slightly sick tone of Breeze, while not reaching the levels of figures like Gibbons or Goldfrapp, fascinates and moves in certain instances.

"So Many Prophets" offers 11 tracks.

01. If
02. Permanent
03. So Many Prophets
04. Leah
05. So Fast
06. A Reel'S Romance
07. Mind In Two
08. Awkward
09. Ground Below
10. Malice
11. Fear Of Hurting


Conclusion
A good album that is appreciated particularly for its arrangements and the elegance of some musical constructs. Not least, the intense and characteristic voice of Michelle.
