C\u00e0 fait sept ans qu’on les attendait ces deux-l\u00e0 !! Sept ans depuis qu’ils avaient repouss\u00e9 les limites du raisonnable en sortant \u00ab Jerusalem \u00bb, morceau-fleuve de 52 minutes devenu culte par tous les amateurs de Doom qui se respectent. A l’\u00e9poque, ils s’appelaient Sleep et Matt Pike n’avait pas encore d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de faire saigner les oreilles de tout auditeur potentiel, ce qu’il r\u00e9ussit fort bien \u00e0 pr\u00e9sent avec High on Fire. Remarquez que six ans s\u00e9paraient d\u00e9j\u00e0 ce fameux \u00ab Jerusalem \u00bb de \u00ab Sleep’s Holy Mountain \u00bb, leur autre album-culte. Mais voil\u00e0, ces gar\u00e7ons sont tr\u00e8s lents, il faut les laisser \u00e9voluer \u00e0 leur propre rythme. Et qu’ils ne viennent pas nous dire qu’ils ont pass\u00e9 tout ce temps \u00e0 composer les morceaux de ce \u00ab Variations on a Theme \u00bb ou qu’ils ont eu du retard en raison du layout de la pochette ! En effet, comme le titre l’indique, il y a une seule id\u00e9e sur ce disque (reconnaissons au moins leur honn\u00eatet\u00e9). Pour \u00e9viter de nous faire deux fois le m\u00eame coup, ils ont d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de l’\u00e9taler sur trois morceaux distincts mais \u00e7\u00e0 ne fait pas beaucoup de diff\u00e9rence. Vous pouvez sans soucis aller prendre une douche en cours d’\u00e9coute, vous ne raterez pas grand chose. A la limite, \u00e7\u00e0 s’emballe un peu \u00e0 5’30\u00a0\u00bb sur le troisi\u00e8me morceau, \u00ab Annapurna \u00bb, mais \u00e7\u00e0 ne dure pas longtemps.<\/p>\n

Et pourtant…<\/p>\n

Pourtant Al Cisneros et Chris Hakius r\u00e9ussissent une fois de plus \u00e0 nous hypnotiser durant 45 minutes qui en paraissent 3 et on \u00e9merge d\u00e9sorient\u00e9 avec une seule envie, r\u00e9appuyez sur \u00ab play \u00bb et replonger. Avec seulement une basse au son hyper-travaill\u00e9 et une batterie \u00e9pileptique (l’absence de guitare passe carr\u00e9ment inaper\u00e7ue), OM nous fait vivre ce qui s’apparente plus \u00e0 une exp\u00e9rience mystique qu’\u00e0 l’\u00e9coute d’un album. Cisneros r\u00e9cite plus qu’il ne chante des paroles au sens obscur. C’est r\u00e9p\u00e9titif, lent et lourd sans jamais \u00eatre indigeste et m\u00eame tr\u00e8s abordable pour ceux que le mot \u00ab doom \u00bb effraye. Le tout est produit de fa\u00e7on magistrale par l’in\u00e9vitable Billy Anderson, d\u00e9j\u00e0 pr\u00e9sent sur les albums de Sleep (s’il compte sur eux pour gagner de quoi payer son loyer, il est mal barr\u00e9).
\nOn se demande n\u00e9anmoins ce que nos deux lascars nous r\u00e9servent la prochaine fois. Rendez-vous en 2012 pour de nouvelles aventures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
