Details: Amazon.ca In the urgency of living and the fear of death, between rock and realistic song, Mano Solo places his second album in line with the previous one, The Naked Marmaille. With his voice alternately harsh and sweet, he sings about AIDS and spits out his despair with an honesty that is still just as moving. He then tells us about his race against death in "A giant step", his renewed hope in "I'm coming back". But he also knows how to take us into the Paris of his wanderings via titles like "Paris boulevards", "Barbès-Clichy" or even "Pont d'Austerlitz". According to his stripped melodies, and on the catchy airs of the waltz or the tango, he gives to hear all the power of his artistic freedom. An artist skinned alive, in a heartbreaking universe of beauty, Mano Solo releases here a burning, feverish emotion, but which, strangely, invigorates as much as it strikes and scratches. Because we make our anger and our desire to live our own. --Sylvie Devilette
