Clap Your Hands Say Yeah: le pulsanti sonorità di The Tourist

Alec Ounsworth, la mente della band americana Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, torna a far palpitare l’ambiente indie-rock.

Dopo “Only Run” Alec deve aver intuito di essere a un crocevia creativo. Serviva un nuovo deciso investimento in fatto di produzione (line-up) e il nome di Dave Fridman dei Mercury Rev impronta al sound del disco nuova linfa vitale, a dodici anni dal famigerato esordio del 2005. Con “The Tourist” (Cyhsy) non siamo vicini a quei livelli, ma la nuova strada intrapresa comincia a convincere di più rispetto ai seguiti del primo album. C’è da dire che il nuovo cambio di passo ha condotto Ounsworth ad abbracciare sonorità indie-pop, mettendo da parte, in parte, quei sintetizzatori che avevano eccessivamente gonfiato il lavoro precedente a questo.

Chitarra acustica, qualche distorsione di chitarra elettrica, percussioni, beat e glitch a iosa formano un bel mix agrodolce di pulsanti sonorità evidenti soprattutto nei gioiellini Better Off e The Vanity of Trying. I temi che toccano sono fra i più disparati, senza arrivare a toccare la politica “poiché non sapremmo parlarne poeticamente”, aggiunge Ounsworth.
