Details: Antoine Corriveau for his third album, This thing that knocked in the hollow of his chest without wanting to stop, imposes his signature in an even more marked way. Nicolas Grou signs the realization. The subject of the songwriter is heavy with meaning, exploring the little deaths that mark the path. Corriveau offers contrasting music, this time leaving a large place to the strings, the piano, and the brass which intertwine and abandon themselves to embraces. Singer-songwriter acclaimed by critics and the public, recipient of the SOCAN Songwriting Prize ("The New Vocabulary", 2015), Antoine Corriveau redefines himself from one opus to another while imposing his signature in an ever more marked way. . Like a trace that is both racy and judiciously flayed – sometimes stripped down, sometimes magnified by fine arrangements – it refines its signature, firm and poised. Growing up in the ashes of Dylan, Waits and other Nick Caves, whom he openly courted on Les Ombres Longues (Coyote Records, 2014), the musician distills darkness to extort from it a range of muffled glows. With his hoarse and dusty timbre, he places his troubled verb on a wild and enveloping frame. Imbued with empathy, the texts observe the quirks and improbabilities of the psyche, unites them under a human denominator. Deepening his quest on the recent This thing that knocked in the hollow of his chest without wanting to stop, the artist shows himself in an even clearer light. And if the subject is always heavy with meaning, exploring the little deaths that punctuate the path, it is based on contrasting music, this time leaving a large place to the strings, the piano, and the brass that intertwine and surrender to hugs.
