Aimed post punk, with warm bass lines and an impressing guitar-work – So Siiiii come up with their album “Ancient”, which is a collection of their songs of their early years (1983-1986) and shows clearly, that it’s possible to carry the so much loved 80s sound into the new millenium. The debut album is available from January 27th in Europe as CD as well as on all well-known download stores.
It seems to be quite easy for the Brits, Paul Devine (Vocals), Angie (Bass) and Mark Holmes (Gitarre) and Wayne Furniss (Drums), to get into the old sound of the 80s post punk again, after 20 years of silence. The proof is their debut album “Ancient”, which is a collection of their old works of exactly this time.
The drums are dominating, the bass specifies the tone, the guitar purrs to the whole here and there a bit, Paul’s varied voice-force gives up distinctive accents, sometimes also clear signs, even aggressive, that can’t be missed.
What sounds like standard by the first listen, emerges as quite fascinating, catching and intoxicating masterpiece after a few seconds, because Siiiii have to offer much more to their listeners, than just a uniform-sound. The Tracks vary from calm to danceable, from melancholic to aggressive, from airy to driving and oppressively.
While songs like “Over” or “Stillwaters” are already enjoying a state as classics in the scene, there is much more to discover from Siiiii on “Ancient”, like for example “Rictus” or “Is Still”.
