Gray Oceans

Floating and flowing through a washing tapestry of both the childish and almost operatic sisters you are aiming right for your cerebral cortex to touch your heart. These are the eternal children. Cocorosie's new album Grey Oceans needs to be heard by anyone who believes in things that are beautiful. I don't understand why so many people are hating on this album. They have always had their charm and their childishness it totally made up for in the past because of songs like "Rainbowarrior". This album is a total step forward for them. It is is very well produced. Very natural and balanced. Touches of the psychedelic too. This legitimately doesn't sound like anything else but just a progress from their previous works. Smokey Taboo taboo has so many sparkling and set over almost primitive sounding rhythms. Just let yourself be taken over by the ocean.
If you like: Antony and the Johnsons, Devendra Banhart, Joanna Newsom, opera, native american chants, and indie bro-outs.
Recommended tracks: Smokey Taboo, Undertaker, and Grey Oceans
