R E L E A S E N O T E S
Over the course of her commercially available
solo albums to date, Leslie Feist has expertly
balanced the weighty with the whimsical; the
heavyhearted with the straight-up joyful. On
2004s Let It Die she offset the mournful
shades of its title-track with the sublime
Mushaboom, while 2007s breakout LP The
Reminder boasted a brace of affecting, minor
key numbers alongside the wonder of 1234
(briefly ubiquitous after featuring in an iPod
nano commercial).
Following a month spent arranging her new
compositions in Toronto, she and long-time
collaborators Chilly Gonzalez and Mocky
decamped to a self-built studio in a "giant
open space" they discovered on the coastline
of Californias Big Sur to record Metals, and
the results are suitably robust. The Bad in
Each Other opens proceedings in a flurry of
metronomic drums, guitars and sax all jostling
under Feists emphatic delivery, until her
tone softens come the chorus in order to rue
the often damaging side-effects of love and
attraction. Focusing on universal emotions and
filtering them through her own experiences,
she has come up with a startling set of songs
here; one that reflects the wild surrounds of
its gestation and equates them with the
chaotic nature of modern life and
relationships.
So, there is nothing quite as uplifting as
those previously mentioned songs, but Metals
remains as wonderfully organic and distinct as
its predecessors, swerving from svelte,
lilting numbers like How Come You Never Go
There? to the abrasive, stabbing strings of A
Commotion (one of Feists noisiest to date),
and the sparse, dreamy, simple-as-you-like
Cicadas & Gulls or Get It Wrong Get It Right.
It is earthy and raw, replete with strings,
horns and ivories that purposefully move from
one pole to the other yet rarely tip into
indulgence. Backing vocals throughout range
from the raucous to the barely perceptible,
underlining how much of a group effort this
is. As made clear on last years documentary
Look at What the Light Did Now, Feists core
collective is very much a long-standing unit.
On top of all this, she is in the form of her
life: whether providing Comfort Me with its
wicked central lyric, cooing atop haunting
album centrepiece Anti-Pioneer or echoing the
bluesy guitar line that snakes its way through
Undiscovered First, you get the impression
that this rough gem of a record is exactly
what she intended from the outset.
