Without completely abandoning his folk influences, Jimmy Hunt moves away from the lightness of the tracks "Motocross" or "Everything Crash" to embrace a more atmospheric, dark and nocturnal register. On Maladie d'amour we find fewer acoustic guitars, more analog synthesizers and a hushed psychedelic spirit that evokes the 1970s. The singer thus embarks on a more international path than "Quebec song", without however losing his personality as friendly obsessive thug. Despite a trough halfway through, the album relies on sought-after sound textures in the service of clothing compositions produced by Emmanuel Ethier. Still, Maladie d'amour is not an album to listen to in all circumstances as its predecessor was. – Olivier Robillard Laveaux (See.ca)
