Fascinating things happen in the project A Concise History Of Joy. From a simple but utterly ironic play in the title itself, to surprisingly innovative and complex music connections in the track “She Can't Come Down.”
This song comprises the approach of the early Skinny Puppy, without agony, but with a straightened back, and the vocal passages skipping from Leonard Cohen to Lou Reed, where the bold energy of the poetry of the latter travels in the depths of the author’s personal, tragic lyricism. And just like another Winnipeg inventor Guy Maddin, A Concise History Of Joy has the same ability to cooperate the lavish charm of the past with sharp but rarely seen overtones of our days, pioneering something big and interesting.
