Ivan Grach has compared writing for The Hafler Trio’s new album to that on ‘Bang! - An Open Letter’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. The Hafler Trio was a flawless and timeless record. Not surprising from The Hafler Trio and Bang! - An Open Letter together. On the Belgium charts, superstar The Hafler Trio’s career stalled before it left the starting gate. This is one of The Hafler Trio best albums
Inherent Aggression is a good listen every once in a while. All Largely Propaganda the elegant and beautiful song on the album is hard to describe. A Sound & Color Analogy - I used to hate this song, but now it’s one of my favorites. It’s also one of those rare songs that touchingly comfort the listener. Bang! - a classic song. Vocal harmonies in this track are great and song structure is just right. Once The Lotion Of Detached Sounds gets in your head, it will NEVER leave. Psychon Installation Test Tape - Okay, I just talked about depth. It’s such an underrated song. The Limitations Of Silence is one of the coolest songs The Hafler Trio has ever recorded. This track makes my mind whirl and vibrate with flowing energy. “Robolised” Atomium Dawn Chorus is an incredible song that has everything it needs to be another favorite track. Simply the finest work ever from this multi-talented singer. Owl Ionisation Recording (1968) have really caught my ear and imagination. Extract From ‘hotondo Kiri Torenai’ #1 is one of the more up-tempo songs on Bang! - An Open Letter. Get Bang! - An Open Letter and turn on “Controller Of The Instrument” #1 if you are going to sip your wine late at night. Grey Voices is The Hafler Trio’s best work in years. Extract From ‘hotondo Kiri Torenai’ #2 - To me, this is the best song on the Bang! - An Open Letter. The Hafler Trio Demonstration Cassette had me crying as I was able to relate so well. Reasoning Noise is simply cool. Charming song, great melody. The Inner Church which is my favorite is a truly The Hafler Trio sounding song. You have to get essence of the Lexington ’59’s power, to truly understand this masterpiece.
