Elias Rønnenfelt took a break
from the country-infused post punk of Iceage to release this gem. While
Marching Church began life as a Rønnenfelt solo project, for debut album, ‘This
World Is Not Enough,’ he is joined by a full band complete with strings and
horns.
‘This World Is Not Enough’
takes us through an array of varied sounds from the pumping drums of opener
‘Living in Doubt’ to the shrouded darkness of ‘You’re Father’s Eyes’. The
Iceage front man’s often bleak but always fascinating lyrics tie together each
song with illustrious ribbons of pure pretension.
I can see that this album will
not be for everyone. If you’re a fan of beautifully grandiose music and Nick
Cave-esque vocals this album was lovingly crafted with you in mind and you’ve
in for a treat.
