Failing Songs marks a new chapter: Elliott fully embraces his voice and shares, for the first time, explicitly dark and personal lyrics.
An uncompromising report of failure — personal and collective — where subtle guitar and cello melodies contrast with the harshness of the words. Between despair and cold anger, the album denounces the military-liberal drift of the contemporary world. Slavic and Greek musical influences run through compositions imbued with the sound of Shostakovich and Pascal Comelade. The album was recorded primarily at home, violin parts captured in a village church by night.
'One of those rare records that can be appreciated both in solitude and in company, an album that grips you and doesn't let go' — a celebration of sad music that, paradoxically, expands the heart.
