Du très bon, ça sonne parfois rentre dedans parfois plus groovy.Le son est naturel, sans production excessive.
Du Rock mais avec des parties de guitares et de batteries plus complexes qu'il n'y paraît.

For a singer-songwriter to produce a first recording that has backbone and bravura strikes good vibrations on all fronts. It is a smart no-frills approach to the listening public.   

Kurt Reifler’s self-titled recording delivers a full plate of varying musicality, a dense instrumentation, and clarity of vocalization. The motion from one track to another supplies you with direction. At one point, the largeness of the statement will wrap you up in pleasure and transport you to the next song which will present a completely different texture that might even possess a bit of longing and the blues. SMILE comes to mind and is my favorite track. It has everything you would ever want in a song including a stark conclusion.

All the songs grab you. They each have a hook. They each have a theme. They endure. You will remember them. The faster songs work a controlled grind.  The slow songs project vulnerability, not only in the tune but also in the meaning of the words. The songs that mix the paces reverberate with breath, groove and a sense of destination. The raspy quality of Reifler’s voice is simultaneously haunting and attractive. His voice has a mid-range tone and no deep bass or high pitch.

The music offers up a scale that disallows imagining Reifler singing alone. The drums and the bass guitar are unremitting rhythmic influences in guiding the main line. They become the elements of embrace. Midst some terrific licks, the lead guitar acts as another voice echoing the singer himself. Reifler’s voice is indivisible from what he and Eddie Arjun Peters produce. In fact, it is amazing that only Reifler and Peters create all the sound.

The label “singer-songwriter” sometimes conjures up the idea of one voice & one guitar in a folksy setting. This recording has invested in multi-instrumental power and expands the vocal in ways that propel it into the rock arena.
 
There is no reason for Reifler to fear the darkness or the light, as his song DREAMS proclaims. The light is shining on him. It is time for an audience to follow the light.

I found Kurt Reifler's music in the deepest, darkest corners of Myspace. He had a few songs you could download, so I did it. Within a few months, the songs had become special to me, evoking actual feelings...and I would have been very pissed if something happened to my Kurt Reifler file. 

My worries are over. I own Kurt Reifler in hardcopy form and now you can, too.  And you should!

Kurt's not playing around. From the minute you put the CD on, you're getting solid tunes and thoughtful lyrics, all delivered to you via Kurt's vocals...at times soaring, at times intimately quiet. This is musical talent that speaks straight to the heart....and also washes away any plaque that may have accumulated there. Kurt Reifler is good for your health.
