SHW is Italian formation from Italian Promotive Agency Alkemist Fanatix Europe. The team runs away from my musical fascinations a bit, although I am open for different musical proposals and I will try to do the review of album “Psychoteque”. And namely – The music what present the Italians is for me like the gentle nostalgic colored calm darkness Rock which is strongly marked influences of U2 (what is hearing in the sound of vocal and in the arrangements). It seems sometimes I hear similarities to PEARL JAM, another time to THE CURE or PLACEBO, I would add similarities to calmer pieces of present ANATHEMA yet. These musical regions are not for me but I have to admit if someone likes the calm melancholy music natant gently, a bit moderately, sometimes even choppy emotionally then this is the music for him.
Obviously the compositions mainly are based on the calm guitar arrangements (typical for bands follow the example of U2), lightly psychedelic, impregnated the gentle solos and mainly the gentle nostalgic singing. Sometimes here stronger guitar knocks appear or more even often keyboards parties.
Though as I more listen intently in this album then it make me more pleasure. It is such soothing, as would raising gently on calm wind and first of all it's very nostalgic – what I like.
