Honey For Petzi
ESNS: 2012
Honey For Petzi are three guys from Lausanne, Switzerland. They compare their last album General Toughts And Tastes (2011) to a sonic kiwi: peel off the silky surface and you'll discover a complex acid ball of energy. That's how you describe an album! Sami Benhadj, Philippe Oberson and Christian Pahud are not inexperienced as musicians. They make their music since 1995. Steve Albini produced their album Heal All Monsters in 2001. You may call The Notwist and Slut references, but when you ask the band, they name Shellac, Don Caballero, Deerhoof, Slint and Pan Sonic amongst many others. On their last album you won't hear just the hypnotic instrumentals we now them for, Honey For Petzi made the unusual combination of their old style and the spirit of the pop song. Like a rainbow born of rain and sun. That's how Honey For Petzi combines two opposing styles to get something completely new and innovative.
