Recorded in Washington, Facing the silence of the world brings together a dozen songs that stand out both for their very effective refrains and for their thoughtful, even philosophical texts (the title track is inspired by Albert Camus' Myth of Sisyphus). Smalley was able to capture in the studio the energy that characterizes Pénélope's shows and succeeded in highlighting the group's pieces thanks to discreet but relevant arrangements. Only a few weaknesses on the vocal side, especially in the more melodic pieces – where the lyrics would benefit from being sung rather than chanted – tarnish the picture a little. That said, this melodic punk rock, delivered with a personality and a Quebec accent, will find many fans. --Nicolas Houle\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 626177101625\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0626177101625\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42564036231427,"sku":"8X-YEUH-YVNH","price":29.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/51y03LrHcQL.jpg?v=1646959399","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/en\/products\/face-au-silence-du-monde","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
